Hi, I'm Pat Triboro and for over 30 years I was the nurse practitioner on the My Face Craniofacial team at NYU in New York. And even now I get so many questions and I'd love to spend some time answering some of them. So one of the most common questions is what is a craniofacial condition or difference? So either present at birth, which is called congenital or as a result of some type of facial trauma, a burn. Or cancer of some part of the head or face. You will see noticeable differences of parts of the skull, head or face. Some examples of this are cleft lip and palate, which is the most common craniofacial condition. Craniosynostosis, which is a premature closure of the bones of the skull. Some other examples are under development or asymmetry of the upper or lower jaws. And one other example would be missing or under development of the ears. Some of these conditions can affect and really challenge a child's ability to eat, breathe, speak, hear or see. So For more information about craniofacial differences, please go to our website, myfaces.org. And you'll see on the dashboard educational resources. Click on that, you'll see a tab for craniofacial differences, which will provide a lot of information about craniofacial conditions. We also have a wonderful series of webinars called Transforming Lives that describe and explain a lot about craniofacial conditions. Thanks so much.

Here's a description of an ideal kids clinic: Designed for little patients: Bright and cheerful atmosphere: Walk in and be greeted by a warm and inviting space decorated with colorful murals, playful furniture, and child-friendly toys. This helps create a positive association with the clinic and reduce anxiety. Distraction techniques: Have a designated play area stocked with age-appropriate toys, books, and games to keep children occupied while waiting. This can distract them from any apprehension they might have about the visit. Friendly staff: The clinic should have a team that is genuinely fond of children. Nurses and medical assistants who can talk to kids in a reassuring and calming way will put them at ease.
