NJ Craniofacial is a group of compassionate, highly trained, board-certified surgeons, physicians, nurses, and therapists dedicated to improving the lives of children with craniofacial conditions caused by birth defects, trauma, and conditions. We treat hundreds of children annually who are affected by conditions such as cleft palate, tumors, plagiocephaly, craniosynostosis, and other craniofacial conditions. The NJ Craniofacial Center takes a team approach to evaluate and treat patients with a wide variety of congenital or acquired craniofacial conditions. Infants, children, and adolescents with craniofacial anomalies have complex problems related to facial appearance, feeding and swallowing, hearing and middle ear infections, speech, and breathing, dental and oral-maxillofacial development, and psychosocial development. At the NJ Craniofacial Center, a team of specialists from a variety of disciplines collaborate to identify the multifaceted needs of the patient and provide appropriate treatment following guidelines established by The American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association (ACPCA).
We strongly agree with a team-oriented approach where surgeries and procedures can be combined, to eliminate unnecessary rips to the OR. With the combined experience of decades of surgical training and expertise, this team of surgeons will provide YOUR child with cutting edge technology, care and treatments to help reduce your anxiety as a parent, and make the overall surgical experience a successful and POSITIVE one.
Cleft lip and cleft palate are among the most common birth defects seen in infants and children. The incomplete formation of the upper lip (cleft lip) or roof of the mouth (cleft palate) can occur individually, or both defects may occur together. The conditions can vary in severity and may involve one or both sides of the face.
Children and adults with craniofacial abnormalities should be seen at multi-disciplinary, craniofacial team centers. The NJ Craniofacial Team provides comprehensive care for children and support for their families. For scheduling an appointment with the NJ Craniofacial Team, please call 973-326-9009.
