Our aim is to support individuals and families of all ages with cleft lip and palate and to manage the entire diagnosis, treatment and therapy process in a healthy way with a holistic approach. In addition, our aim is to touch the lives of individuals with cleft lip and palate in our country and in the world and to contribute to their being healthy individuals through education and scientific research. Cleft lip and palate is one of the most common birth anomalies, affecting at least one in 1000 children in Turkey. If the disease is not treated, it may cause nutritional, speech and hearing problems in the early period, while it may cause social, psychological and aesthetic problems in the late periods.

• Although the reason is not known exactly, did you know that the common interaction of genetic and environmental factors can cause this anomaly?
• Did you know that when there is a family history of CLP, there is a risk of it being seen in subsequent pregnancies?
