Purpose of study: The purpose of study was to describle clinical and frontal cephalometric characteristics of 28 operated cleft lip and palate (CLP) individuals, aged from 6-15, diagnosed with maxillary transverse deficiency. Methods: cross-sectional descriptive study, clinical examination and on the plaster cast and frontal cephalometric. Results: The highest Angle III rate is accounted for 50 percent in the right and 60,7 percent in the left. The bilateral posterior crossbite rate is accounted for 71,4 percent and was significantly higher than unilateral posterior crossbite in isolated Cleft Palate (CP) and complete Bilateral Cleft Lip and Palate (BCLP). Conclusions: In CLP, malocclusion is dominated by Angle III and bilateral posterior crossblte. The intercanine and interpremolar width of maxillary significantly decrease.
