Oral Rehabilitation of an Orthodontic Patient with Cleft Lip and Palate and Hypodontia Using Secondary Bone Grafting,Osseo-Integrated Implants,and Prosthetic Treatment
Complete skeletal and dental reconstruction of the anterior maxilla is of great importance to patients with cleft lip and palate. Accordingly, osseo-integrated implants have been utilized for dental reconstruction after secondary bone grafting. In this report, the orthodontic management of a patient with unilateral cleft lip and plate with associated hypodontia is described. The patient was treated with comprehensive orthodontic treatment in addition to secondary bone grafting, and dental reconstruction was achieved with a combination of osseo-integrated implants and fixed prosthodontic treatment.
