Osseous Outcomes of Cleft Alveolar Bone Grafting with Allograft and Platelet-Rich Fibrin: Preliminary Study with Radiological Outcome.

Objective: Cleft lip and palate are the most common craniofacial malformations worldwide. The alveolar cleft is treated with a bone graft, between 4 and 7 years of age in mixed dentition. This is an important step because it provides good quality jawbone and a better support of the lip and the alar cartilage on the side of the cleft.

Orthognathic surgery in patients treated with bisphosphonates: A case series.

The aim of this case series was to complete the literature with six other cases of orthognathic surgery in patients treated with bisphosphonate (BP). The majority of studies concerning oral and maxillofacial surgery focus on dental extractions and implant placement in patients treated with BP. Only 5 cases of orthognathic surgery in patients treated with BP have been reported: four cases for osteogenesis imperfecta and one case for osteoporosis.
