Objective To overcome the difficulties of one-stage secondary alveolar bone grafting for patients with bilateral cleft lip and palate (BCLP) who have a broad alveolar cleft, the value of two-stage alveolar bone grafting was examined. Patients Three patients (2 girls and 1 boy) with BCLP were treated by two-stage alveolar bone grafting. The procedure consisted of a first-stage surgery (mean age 8 year 6 months ± 7.8 months), which consisted of alveolar bone grafting for one side of the BCLP, and second-stage surgery for the contralateral side several months later. For the postoperative assessment, radiographs of the operated site were examined. Results The average amount of implanted bone per operation and per patient was 6.8 ± 1.1 g and 13.7 ± 1.0 g, respectively. Postoperative clinical and radiographic examinations revealed that an appreciable alveolar bone ridge had formed, and there were no major complications. Conclusions Two-stage alveolar bone grafting, which makes it possible to reduce the amount of implanted bone, could be an optional surgical procedure for patients with BCLP and a broad alveolar cleft.

Objective This paper introduces a surgical technique for premaxillary repositioning in combination with two-stage alveolar bone grafting for the correction of the premaxillary deformity of patients with bilateral cleft lip and palate (BCLP). The paper also reports on two patients with BCLP who underwent this surgical management. Surgical Procedure The operation is usually performed when the patient is 8 to 14 years of age. In the first stage of surgery, the side more accessible to the septopremaxillary junction is selected, and an osteotomy of the premaxilla and unilateral alveolar bone grafting are performed. Approximately 4 to 12 months after the first stage of surgery, contralateral alveolar bone grafting is carried out. Conclusion We have found that this surgical procedure is highly effective, because it ensures the blood supply to the premaxilla and minimizes the potential for surgical failure. Moreover, it affords wide exposure of the premaxillary bone surface, facilitating sufficient boney bridging and allowing for orthodontic tooth movement.

Secondary Alveolar Bone Grafting

Objective: To assess the radiographic outcome of secondary alveolar bone grafting in individuals with nonsyndromic unilateral or bilateral cleft lip and palate using cone beam computed tomography. Methods: This prospective study was conducted at the University of California at San Francisco Center for Craniofacial Anomalies on 21 consecutive nonsyndromic complete cleft lip and palate individuals between 8 and 12 years of age who required alveolar bone grafting. Seventeen unilateral and four bilateral cleft lip and palate individuals had preoperative and postoperative cone beam computed tomography scans that were analyzed using Amira 3.1.1 software. Results: The average volume of the preoperative alveolar cleft defect in unilateral cleft lip and palate was 0.61 cm3, and the combined average volume of the right and left alveolar cleft defects in bilateral cleft lip and palate was 0.82 cm3. The average percentage bone fill in both unilateral cleft lip and palate and bilateral cleft lip and palate was 84%. The outcome of alveolar bone grafting was assessed in relation to (1) type of cleft, (2) size of preoperative cleft defect, (3) presence or absence of lateral incisor, (4) root development stage of the maxillary canine on the cleft side, (5) timing, and (6) surgeon. None of these parameters significantly influenced the radiographic outcome of alveolar bone grafting. Conclusions: Secondary alveolar bone grafting of the cleft defect in our center was successful, based on radiographic outcome using cone beam computed tomography scans. Volume rendering using cone beam computed tomography and Amira software is a reproducible and practical method to assess the preoperative alveolar cleft volume and the adequacy of bone fill postoperatively.

Objective The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate presurgical status of the alveolar cleft site and success of secondary alveolar bone grafting. Design Thirty patient records were retrospectively reviewed. Patients selected for inclusion had isolated cleft of at least the primary palate. Patients with additional anomalies were not selected. The study population consisted of 15 female sites and 16 male cleft sites. There were two bilateral cleft lip and palate (CLP) patients and 28 unilateral CLP patients. The age at the time of the secondary alveolar bone grafting ranged from 7 years to 14 years, 4 months. Setting The study was conducted at the Cleft Palate Clinic at the University of Minnesota, School of Dentistry. Method Presurgical radiographs taken at least 1 month prior to the secondary bone grafting and postsurgical radiographs taken at least 6 months after bone surgery were measured. Measurements included size of the cleft defect and bone support for distal and mesial teeth adjacent to the cleft. Evaluation of success was determined on the basis of postsurgical measurements of satisfactory, intermediate, and unsatisfactory outcomes. Results and Conclusion The size of the cleft defect was not correlated with the success rate of the secondary alveolar bone grafting. If the amount of distal bone support for the mesial tooth was the same as those in a periodontally healthy individual, a satisfactory outcome was 5.8 times more likely. If the amount of mesial bone support for the distal tooth was the same as those in a periodontally healthy individual, the satisfactory outcome was 3.8 times more likely. Although not a primary purpose of the study, it was found that in this study population, if the patient was female, a satisfactory outcome was 3.8 times more likely.

Objective To report the surgical outcomes of secondary alveolar bone grafting with premaxillary osteotomy in a single surgeon cohort of complete bilateral cleft lip and palate patients. Design Retrospective review of 44 consecutive patients using hospital notes and radiographs. Setting Single specialist cleft lip and palate center, UK. Patients Consecutive patients with complete bilateral cleft lip and palate who were being treated with secondary alveolar bone grafting incorporating premaxillary osteotomy. Outcome Measures Assessment of success of bone graft by Kindelan score; canine eruption; closure of fistulae and assessment of morbidity. Results Between January 6, 2000, and August 8, 2013, 44 patients with complete BCLP underwent secondary ABG with a premaxillary osteotomy as a one-stage procedure. The mean follow-up was 7.3 years (range 1.4 to 14.6). Eighty-five percent of ABGs were successful (a Kindelan score of 1 or 2), and canine eruption was 89%. Failure of the ABG occurred in 7%. Fistulae recurrence rate was 11%, all of which were asymptomatic. No premaxillae were devitalized. Conclusion Incorporating a premaxillary osteotomy into the secondary ABG surgical protocol can be a safe technique that gives excellent surgical exposure for fistula repair.
