Bioglass 45S5, a relevant alternative to autogenous harvesting for secondary alveolar bone grafts in clefts? Retrospective study of one hundred surgeries.

The secondary alveolar bone grafting (SABG) step restores the continuity of the alveolar bone necessary for dentition. Faced with the complications of autografts, synthetic biomaterials such as Bioglass (BG) 45S5 have been proposed. The objective was to evaluate the success rate of SABG with the addition of BG 45S5 and to highlight the prognostic factors.
