AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate the clinical effect of improved alveolar cleft repair with bone grafting.
Methods: Forty one cases with alveolar cleft treated by modified operation between 2008-2016 were included. The modified techniques were as follow: incision design, preparation of bone graft bed, bone removal and bone grafting, etc. The therapeutic effect was analyzed.
Results: The successful rate was 92.8%. After 6-12 months of follow-up, bone graft survived well with no obvious complications.
Conclusions: Iliac bone is a good source for bone graft. Improvement of tight tension-free suture in bone bed is the key to surgical success.

Background: Unilateral cleft lip secondary nasal deformities are common and require surgical correction frequently. The nasal dome on the cleft side is depressed, and the nasal ala is in an extended and flattened position compared with the noncleft side. In addition, the nasal septum is deviated into the cleft nostril.

Digital impressions are increasingly used to manage Cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P), potentially offering advantages over traditional methods. This laboratory investigation sought to evaluate the impact of scanning tip sizes, different scanners, and scanning strategies on intraoral scanning in neonates with CL/P. Ten soft acrylic models were used to simulate the oral anatomy of neonates with CL/P, evaluating parameters such as the ability of different scanning tips to capture alveolar cleft depth, scanning time, number of scan stops, and scan quality.
