Alveolar Bone Grafting

The present review aims to investigate the effect of alveolar bone grafting in canine impacted unilateral cleft lip and palate patients. The goal of this review is to identify and highlight the factors that may cause maxillary canine impaction, the role of primary and secondary bone graft and dental anomalies that may affect canine impaction in patients with cleft lip and palate.

Alveolar Bone Grafting

Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the effects on facial growth of alveolar bone grafting in the mixed dentition for patients with UCLP. Design: Retrospective cephalometric study. Setting: Craniofacial Treatment and Research Centre, The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Patients: The 58 patients participating in the study had a history of complete unilateral cleft lip and palate, all of which were repaired by the same plastic surgeon. Interventions: Twenty-one patients received an iliac-crest alveolar bone graft at a mean age of 10.3 years, while 37 did not receive an alveolar bone graft. Lateral cephalometric radiographs were obtained on all patients at two different times: at a mean age of 9.4 years (prior to bone grafting in the grafted group) and at a mean age of 15.2 years. Main Outcome Measures: All radiographs were traced and digitized by the same person, using cephalometric computer software. Superimposition and cephalometric analysis was undertaken to investigate the differences between the two groups in the 5.6-year experimental period. A two-way analysis of covariance was used for evaluation of the statistical significance of the results. Results: No statistically significant differences were found in 14 of the 15 cephalometric measurements performed. Harvold's maxillary unit length was statistically significantly shorter in the grafted group, although a lack of correlation with angular measurements and inherent problems with this specific measurement raise doubts in this finding. Conclusion: Mixed dentition bone grafting does not affect subsequent vertical and A-P development of the maxilla in complete unilateral cleft lip and palate patients during the first several postoperative years.

Secondary Alveolar Bone Grafting

Cleft lip and palate is one of the most common facial deformities. During embryonic life, non-fusion of the maxillary and medial nasal plaques leads to cleft lip and palate. Fissures can produce a range of dental problems in terms of number, size, shape, and position, related to deciduous or permanent dentition. Besides this, the teeth most affected are those located in the fissure area. There are numerous treatment protocols, which, despite the lack of a consensus, start as soon as the child is born, going into adulthood, seeking functional and aesthetic rehabilitation. The surgical phases, lip repair, nasal repair, palatoplasty and alveolar bone grafting, are performed according to age. As for the bone graft, the most used option is the secondary graft, with the autogenous one being the most available. Thus, the objective of this work is to present a clinical case of secondary alveolar bone grafting in a 10-year-old female patient with an incomplete unilateral pre-foramen cleft.

Alveolar Bone Grafting

Objective: To quantify dental anomalies in permanent dentition associated with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate and to survey treatment modalities used to address these problems. Method: Retrospective study of 116 children with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate treated at SickKids since birth. Presence and morphology of lateral incisors and second premolars were determined. Orthodontic, surgical, and/or prosthetic procedures were analyzed. Results: The cleft-side lateral incisor was absent in 93.1% of finished cases. The lateral incisor mesial to the cleft was present in 4.3%, absent due to agenesis in 75.9%, and extracted in 19.8% of cases. The lateral distal to the cleft was present in 2.6%, absent due to agenesis in 33.6%, and extracted in 63.8% of cases. Of 105 lateral incisors, only one had normal morphology. Noncleft-side lateral incisors were absent in 16% of finished cases. Absence was due to agenesis in 12.1% of cases and extraction in 4.3%. When the lateral incisor was missing, closure of the dental space occurred by orthodontic tooth movement after alveolar bone grafting (45%); surgical closure with simultaneous alveolar bone grafting (35%); prosthetic closure (17%); and 3% were failures. Agenesis of premolars occurred in 12.1% of cleft-side and 10.3% of noncleft-side maxillary second premolars. Conclusions: The cleft-side lateral incisor is rarely present at the conclusion of orthodontic and surgical treatment of complete unilateral cleft lip and palate. Often absent due to agenesis, when present it is typically abnormal in size and bone support and is commonly extracted in favor of canine substitution.

Abstract There are controversies related to the effects of bone grafts on tooth eruption and impaction in patients with cleft lip and palate. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the effectiveness of bone grafting on eruption of canines in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP). An electronic search was conducted in six electronic databases and gray literature, without limitations on year of publication or language. The primary outcome was the increase in rate of canine eruption; the secondary outcomes were success of the bone graft, canine impaction due to agenesis of the lateral incisor, and effect of orthodontic treatment before and after bone grafting. The risk of bias was analyzed by means of the tool Cochrane risk of bias in nonrandomized controlled trials (NRCTs) of interventions (ROBINS-I). The certainty of the evidence was assessed for outcomes reported through a narrative synthesis using grading of recommendations, assessment, development and evaluation (GRADE) approach. Four NRCTs were included, with a total of 360 patients, 283 UCLP and 77 bilateral cleft lip and palate (BCLP). The studies reported association between the increase in the rate of tooth eruption and bone graft with very low certainty of evidence, and greater experience of surgical success, with low certainty of evidence. The majority of the studies found an association between increase in the rate of canine impaction and agenesis of the lateral incisor, with very low certainty of evidence. There was very low certainty of the efficacy of secondary alveolar bone grafting for increasing the rates of eruption and reducing impaction of the maxillary canine.

Objective: To determine the rate of revision alveolar bone grafting (ABG) in patients with cleft lip and palate (CLP) before and after the introduction of postoperative computed tomography (CT). Design: Retrospective case–control study analyzing the incidence of revision ABG in patients with and without postoperative CT scans for graft success evaluation. Setting: Academic tertiary care pediatric hospital. Patients: Eighty-seven patients with CLP or cleft lip and alveolus treated with autologous iliac crest bone grafting for alveolar clefts over a 10-year period (January 2009 to March 2019) with minimum 6-month follow-up. Fifty patients had postoperative CT evaluation; 37 did not. Interventions: Postoperative CT to determine ABG success, versus standard clinical examination and 2-dimensional radiographs. Main Outcome Measures: Requirement for revision ABG, defined as failure of the original graft by clinical or radiographic examination. Results: Fifty-eight percent of patients underwent a postoperative CT scan at median interval of 10 months after surgery. Patients with postoperative CT evaluation had a 44% rate of revision ABG (22/50) for inadequate graft take, compared to 5% (2/37) in patients without postoperative CT ( P < .001; 95% CT, 31%-58% in the CT group, 1%-16% in the non-CT group). Conclusions: Computed tomography evaluation after ABG is associated with a significantly increased revision rate for inadequate graft take. The presence of a secondary palatal fistula at the time of original ABG is not associated with revision requirement. Lack of standardized dental and orthodontic records complicates the study of ABG outcomes and presents an area for systems-based improvement.
