AbstractA number of modifications of the tongue blade of the Dott mouth gag for cleft palate surgery are described and illustrated. These modifications facilitate cleft palate surgery, especially on small infants and patients with micrognathia, as well as surgery under the microscope and also reduce the risk of compression of the endotracheal tube.Copyright 2000 The British Association of Plastic Surgeons.
