Baby's cleft lip is a common oral deformity, and surgical treatment is the key. However, the specific timing of the operation needs to be decided according to the baby's situation. This article will introduce the timing and postoperative recovery of baby rabbit lip surgery to help you better understand this problem.

Operating time

Under normal circumstances, the baby is healthy, and when he is 3 to 6 months old, he can arrange surgery. At this stage, the baby's body grows rapidly and the resistance is enhanced, which is helpful for postoperative recovery. However, if the baby has bilateral cleft lip, it is recommended to have surgery at 6~8 months. The operation time should not exceed one year.

Postoperative recovery

After the operation, the baby recovered well, and the oral functions such as voice were not affected. However, full recovery may require multiple operations, and the best operation time is suggested to be between 10 ~ 18 months, and the earlier the better.

Language expression

Rabbit lip surgery will not affect the baby's voice and language. However, if there is a problem with alveolar occlusion, the baby's language expression may be affected. If there is occlusion problem, orthodontic treatment should be carried out before 12 years old. Parents should take their babies to regular hospitals for scientific treatment in time.
