Although treatments for cleft lip and palate in Iran are performed at different ages, using various methods and by specialists from different disciplines, the absence of a unified treatment protocol within a coordinated multidisciplinary team has resulted in suboptimal outcomes for newborns.
Zanjireh Omid, by establishing a highly specialized multidisciplinary team—including plastic surgeons, genetic counselors, pediatric cardiologists, speech therapists, audiologists, otolaryngologists (ENT specialists), orthodontists, and prosthodontists—and by adopting a treatment protocol in line with international standards, has implemented an integrated treatment pathway aimed at achieving the most comprehensive and optimal therapeutic outcomes.
This approach enables these children to achieve full recovery and live as active and productive members of society.
