Relevance. Anatomical and functional disorders in congenital clefts may be various. Their severity depends on the cleft size combination of a lip with an alveolar cleft. Alveolar bone grafting (ACBG) is one most important surgeries for patients palate rehabilitation. The study aimed to analyze results various age groups, summarizing available data supplementing them our own experience. Material...

A grafting robot based on cleft grafting method has been developed to improve efficiency of grafting solanaceae vegetables. This robot consists of four parts including a clamping manipulator and carrying, cutting, feeding mechanisms. These not only enable the robot to conveniently perform clamping, carrying, positioning, cutting, joining, and binding rootstock and scion, but also improve the gr...

A clinical case of bilateral cleft palate repair using previous tongue flap followed by Alveolar Bone Grafting(ABG). After pre-surgical orthodontics a surgical procedure whereby Flaps were reflected, nasalbeds prepared on both sides. cortico-cancellous bone 2 cm was harvested from iliac crest and grafted inclefts. Patient is kept follow up to monitor healing, postoperative results any post- ope...

OBJECTIVE Evaluation of the presence of the maxillary lateral incisor in the cleft in patients with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate treated with the use of various surgical protocols. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted as regards diagnostic models, panoramic radiographs and tooth images of the cleft of 75 patients with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate...

Cleft of the lip, alveolus and palate (CLAP), is a complex facial deformity, which requires multiple surgeries and bone grafting to correct the defect. Active or passive Pre surgical Orthopedic Molding reduces the deformity and thus reduces number of surgeries to achieve superior post surgical esthetic. Pre-surgical nasoalveolar molding (PNAM) is passive molding which align and approximate the ...

Alveolar bone grafting is a standard method for treating alveolar cleft. To ensure the best outcome, improving the arch form as well as soft tissue quality in the area around the cleft is recommended. In this study, 11 patients who presented with alveolar cleft and collapsed maxillary arch were treated in the following sequence: transpalatal distraction osteogenesis followed by soft tissue surg...

The results of alveolar bone grafting carried out at The Hospital for Sick Children, Great Ormond Street, London, UK, between January 1982 and January 1989 were assessed. Cancellous bone from the iliac crest was grafted to alveolar cleft defects in 115 patients (63 male and 52 female). Eighty-seven unilateral (58 left and 29 right) and 28 bilateral clefts were operated on. The mean age at the t...

OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy of decellularized dermal grafting used as an adjunct to the performance of primary repair of wide cleft palates. DESIGN Retrospective review. SETTING Tertiary referral center for large managed care organization. METHODS Seven consecutive patients with clefts of the hard and soft palates wider than 15 mm as measured at the posterior edge of the hard palate....
