Bone Grafting in the Cleft Palate Patient
نویسندگان
چکیده
During the last 20 years a new concept arose among surgeons performing cleft lip and palate repair: the defect represents not only a cleft but also a failure of development with a deficiency of tissue; the corollary is that the absent bony tissue should be replaced by bone grafts. It was reasoned that early replacement of the deficient bone would promote satisfactory maxillary development and maintain adequate dentoalveolar arch form.

Objective To determine in individuals with unilateral cleft lip and palate the correlation between initial cleft size and dental anomalies, and the outcome of alveolar bone grafting. Methods A total of 67 consecutive patients with non-syndromic unilateral complete cleft lip and palate (UCLP) were included from the cleft lip and palate-craniofacial center, Uppsala University Hospital, Sweden. Al...

متن کاملDental implant treatment for a patient with bilateral cleft lip and palate.
Dental reconstruction in the cleft space is difficult in some patients with cleft lip and palate because of oronasal fistulas. Most of these patients receive a particle cancellous bone marrow (PCBM) graft to close the alveolar cleft, and secondary bone grafting is also required. Treatment options for the alveolar cleft including fixed or removable prostheses require the preparation of healthy t...
متن کاملComparative study of maxillary growth and occlusal outcome after autogenous rib grafting in complete cleft palate defect.
Cleft palate is a congenital deformity with soft tissue and hard tissue defects. Normal cleft palate repairing surgery only repairs soft tissue defects, whereas bone defects in the hard palate still exist. Therefore, we conducted this study in beagles to observe the influence of bone grafting at primary surgery on craniofacial growth and occlusal relationships in individuals with complete cleft...
