Introduction: An important aspect of the bilateral alveolar clefts is the anatomical alteration of the premaxilla, mainly due to the lack of stability that they present. This is why the complexity that arises at the time of the orthopedicorthodontic treatment of these patients. This article aims to present the orthopedic management of premaxilla in a pediatric patient with bilateral cleft. Case presentation: male patient, 6 years old with bilateral cleft palate history, treated at the Fundación Gantz (Santiago, Chile). The objective of the treatment was to correct the position of the premaxila at an early age, through orthopedic treatment, ending with fixed appliances. Discussion: Over time, different treatment plans have emerged that focus on correcting the position of the premaxilla. From surgical treatments, to orthopedic and orthodontic treatments. Through the proposed orthopedic treatment, it is possible to improve the position of the premaxilla, achieving a good alignment and leveling.
