This is a 15-month-old boy who was referred by Dr. K. K. Raja, Head of the Department, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, SRM Dental College and Hospital to Dr. S. M. Balaji for the purpose of demonstrating a cleft lip repair as part of the preconference live surgical demonstration of the 10th World Cleft Lip, Palate, and Craniofacial Congress. Oral and maxillofacial surgeon Dr. S. M. Balaji decided to proceed with a modified Millard Noordhoff left-sided cleft lip repair.  This was performed at Balaji Dental and Craniofacial Hospital, Chennai.
This surgery was done to rehabilitate him and help him feed normally as good nutrition is extremely essential for an actively growing little child to develop normally in all parameters. From the aesthetic point of view also, the importance of this surgery is paramount as it would enable him to interact well with his peers as well as other older individuals.
The surgery was a complete success.  The scar that resulted from this was negligible and his parents expressed their appreciation of how Dr. S. M. Balaji was helping in transforming his life for the better.
