چکیده
Suday, O cber 8, 2017 Harvesting bone may result in donor site morbidity, additional operating time and length of hospitalization. Recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rhBMP)-2 with a demineralized bone matrix (DBM) was used as an alternative bone source for alveolar cleft reconstruction. We investigate the outcomes of rhBMP-2/DBM versus ICBG for alveolar cleft reconstruction by reviewing postoperative surgical complications and cleft closure.
