Core Tip Pierre Robin sequence is a severe congenital condition characterized by triad of micrognathia, glossoptosis, and cleft palate. Glossoptosis and micrognathia may result in obstruction of the airway on inspiration and impeding feeding. If untreated, this problem can lead to exhaustion, cardiac failure, and ultimately death, especially during the early months of life. This paper give detailed reviews supported with figures for surgical interventions and conservative orthodontic approaches, and also presents a baby treated successfully with an orthodontic appliance. Orthodontic nutrition plate appears to be a viable alternative in treatment of Pierre Robin sequence to surgical treatment modalities that are more aggressive in nature.
