Abstract
The nasoalveolar molding (NAM) appliance has been the appliance of choice for pre-surgical orthopedics to improve nasal and lip morphology, and optimally align the alveolar segments before cheiloplasty. However, the appliance has some limitations, including its complexity and long clinical chair time for appliance adjustments. In this case report, we present a patient treated for a right complete cleft lip and palate using three types of Korat modification for NAM with a 5-year follow-up. This study demonstrated that the Korat-NAM improved the aforementioned issues and was suitable for patients at different stages before and after lip and palate repair.
