Objectives To evaluate the dental and periodontal condition of patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) before orthodontic treatment and evaluate whether the dental and periodontal condition of these patients during and after orthodontic treatment was jeopardized by the duration of the orthodontic and surgical treatment. Design Seventy-five individuals with UCLP (52 males, 23 females), between ages 8 and 20 years, participated in a retrospective study during their final follow-up visit with regard to dental abnormalities, such as hypodontia, external root resorption, crown and root malformation, and supernumerary teeth. Alveolar bone height and periodontal attachment loss on the cleft side were also screened before or after bone grafting and at different stages of orthodontic treatment. Results Hypodontia of the lateral incisor was found in more than 50% of the patients on the cleft side. Second premolars and/or lateral incisors outside the cleft area were missing in 27.2% of the patients. In 32%, malformations of the teeth near the cleft were noticed. In general, the teeth around and in the cleft of the patients showed normal septal bone heights and a healthy periodontium. Sixty of the 75 patients received a bone graft to restore the interrupted alveolar process. In 93.3% of these patients, the cleft was grafted before the eruption of the canine. Conclusion The periodontium of the teeth in and around the cleft in patients with UCLP observed during and after orthodontic treatment can cope relatively well with the long orthodontic treatment and combined surgical interventions. The children, who had not yet started treatment, also showed enough bone support and no periodontal problems of the teeth besides the cleft. Early secondary bone grafting seems to give optimal periodontal results.

Objective: The timing of alveolar bone graft (ABG) for patients with cleft lip and palate is critical to the success of the operation. Sociodemographic factors have been implicated in delaying surgery for other diagnoses but their impact on patients undergoing ABG is unknown. The purpose of this study is to examine the association of sociodemographic factors on the age of patients undergoing ABG. Methods: The Kids’ Inpatient Database (KID) from 2012 was used to define a cohort of patients with cleft lip and/or palate between the ages of 5 and 14. Patients were selected using ICD-9 procedure codes for repair of oronasal fistula and bone graft. Gender, race, income quartile, hospital region, and type of insurance were used as independent variables. Time to ABG was then calculated as hazard ratios (HR) of having surgery using Cox regression models with 95% confidence intervals. Results: A cohort of 395 patients was identified. Median age at ABG was 9 ± 0.15 years. On univariate analysis, Non-Hispanic Black (NHB) patients underwent surgery later than Non-Hispanic White (NHW) patients (11.13 ± 0.44 years vs 9.67 ± 0.19 years, P = .0026). Patients in the higher 2 income quartiles were more likely to have an early surgery as compared to those in the lowest quartile (9.16 ± 0.43 and 9.32 ± 0.43 years vs 10.20 ± 0.33, P = .016 and 0.043 respectively). No factor was significant on multivariate analysis. Conclusions: Patients who are NHB are associated with delayed time to ABG as compared to NHW. Conversely, those in the upper income quartile by zip code underwent surgery at an earlier age. While this study identifies demographic factors associated with delay of ABG, more research is needed to understand the direct causal effects for this delay in surgery and its implication for future growth and need for orthognathic surgery.

Secondary Alveolar Bone Grafting

Secondary alveolar bone grafting (SABG) is associated with donor site morbidities. We aimed to compare the outcomes of SABG and extensive gingivoperiosteoplasty (EGPP) at the mixed dentition stage. This single-blinded, randomized, prospective trial enrolled 50 consecutive patients with unilateral complete cleft lip and palate who had residual alveolar bone cleft, of which 44 (19 SABG, 25 EGPP) completed the study. Bone volumes before surgery, 6 months postoperatively, and 1-year postoperatively were compared using computed tomography. The Bergland scale score was recorded at 6 months postoperatively. Both groups had the same preoperative alveolar cleft volume. On the Bergland scale, 21, 3, and 1 patient in the EGPP group and 16, 2, and 1 patient in the SABG group were classified as types I, II, and IV, respectively, which did not show significant difference. With perioperative orthodontic treatment, the 1-year residual bone defect volume in both groups did not show significant difference (SABG 0.12 cm3 vs. EGPP at 0.14 cm3, p > 0.05). The study was not able to reveal much difference between SABG and EGPP combined with perioperative orthodontic treatment.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of the timing of secondary alveolar bone graft (SABG) on craniofacial morphology in patients with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP). Design: Single-center retrospective assessment of consecutively treated nonsyndromic patients with complete UCLP. Participants: One hundred sixty-seven patients (108 males, 59 females) with complete UCLP in whom the cleft was repaired with 1-stage method at approximately 8 months of age. The age of 128 patients at SABG varied from 1.4 to 11.5 years (SABG group), while 39 patients still awaited SABG at the moment of cephalometric evaluation (no-SABG group). Methods: Craniofacial morphology was assessed on lateral cephalograms taken at 10 years of age (standard deviation = 0.8; range: 7.5-12.3) using linear and angular measurements. T tests and regression models were made to analyze data. Results: Regression models demonstrated that the effect of SABG on the craniofacial morphology was limited—cephalometric variables which were statistically significantly different between SABG and no-SABG groups showed no association with the timing of SABG when (1) age of primary repair of the cleft, (2) age of cephalometric evaluation, (3) cleft side, (4) gender, and (5) operator were controlled for. Only the length of the maxilla (Condylion-point A) was affected—1-year delay of SABG corresponded with an increase in Co-point A distance by 0.52 mm. However, adjusted R 2 of the model was 0.11. Conclusions: Our findings cautiously indicate that SABG performed before 8 years of age can have limited negative effect on craniofacial morphology. Nevertheless, our results should be confirmed by cleft centers practicing alternative surgical repairs of the cleft.

Objective: To examine the relationship between the method of anesthesia for alveolar bone graft surgery and postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) based on the difference in surgical timing and to assess factors related to the postoperative quality of life. Design: Retrospective observational study. Setting: Hospital. Participants: Patients with cleft lip and palate who underwent alveolar bone graft surgery under general anesthesia. The subjects were divided into two groups based on surgical timing: secondary bone graft (SBG) and late secondary bone graft (LSBG) groups. Main Outcome Measures: Relationship between time to recovery of feeding and the types of anesthesia, PONV, and postoperative pain period. Results: The mean patient age was 9.97 ± 1.33 years in the SBG group and 15.39 ± 0.31 years in the LSBG group. In the SBG group, patients who were administered fentanyl or remifentanil had significantly higher incidence of PONV than those who were not administered these drugs. In the SBG group, the time to recovery of feeding was significantly longer in patients experiencing PONV within 2 hours or that lasted for 24 hours than in those without PONV. In the LSBG group, there was no significant difference regarding any of the above factors. Conclusions: Our results suggest that the occurrence of PONV within 2 hours or lasting for 24 hours postoperatively in school-age children prolonged the time to recovery of feeding. This indicates that the time to recovery of feeding can be predicted based on the occurrence of PONV within the first 2 hours.
