A possible avenue to improve the clinical success of bone graft procedures in cleft lip and palate cases is to predetermine the bone donor site and the volume of graft material required for the recipient site. This study utilized cone beam computed tomography to generate three-dimensional reconstructions and volumetrically assess unilateral cleft lip and palate defects. Access to this information can assist in determining an optimal donor site for secondary alveolar bone grafting.
