Objective: This critical integrative review aimed to investigate the relationship between cleft lip and palate and gingival diseases, correlating them to quality of life to provide clarification on the subject, even if further studies on long-term follow-up on this subject are required. Literature review: The World Health Organization defines oral health-related quality of life as the self-perception of individuals on the influence of their oral condition - in aspects related to their general well-being. It is likely associated with periodontal disease. Moreover, the impact that such conditions may have on the life of individuals with cleft lip and palate is still little known, making it relevant to synthesize the data of this potential association. Final considerations: The present review focused on the critical analysis of cross-sectional and longitudinal studies, assuming that an adequate appreciation of the particularities of these studies favors the understanding of the impact of gingival diseaseassociated with patients with cleft lip and palate.
The understanding of these factors may imply in the well-being of the population studied, aiding the
therapeutic choice and the conduct of dentists. Therefore, further studies with methodological quality
are required on this subject, which may contribute to a clearer definition of the potential association of
worse hygiene scores with an impact on the quality of life of individuals with cleft lip and palate.
