| Summary: | Double palate is a unique, congen_it3i, extremely rare and infrequent occurrence in the oro-facial complex. Most of other congenital anomalies of palate are of frequent occurrence and have an early and easy diagnosis. The reported case was an extremely rare and unique with duplication of palate and of maxillary dental arch. The patient had normal mandibular dentition, broad flat-palate very unusual to the age, depressed-nasal bridge, anatomically incompetent but potentially competent lips, hypertelorism with no other skeletal deformity. The patient had already been operated for growth in the palatal region one year ago. The present case needs a multi-approach team management for the future rehabilitation of oro-facial complex. |
