Premaxillary osteotomy in children with bilateral cleft lip and palate: Skeletal and dental changes
Published on: 16th July, 2020
OCLC Number/Unique Identifier: 8639114756
Purpose: To evaluate changes in children with bilateral cleft lip and palate (BCLP) who premaxillary osteotomy and secondary alveolar bone grafting as compared to children with BCLP who are not indicated for surgery, and to determine variables that differentiate patients who do or do not require osteotomy.
Material and methods: Twenty-four children with BCLP were included in the study: 12 who underwent osteotomy (intervention group) and 12 who had no surgery (control group). Radiographic and model values of the intervention group were compared before (T1) and after (T2) premaxillary osteotomy, and measurements were compared with those from the control group at T1.
Results: Convexity, ANB (point A-nasion-point B), and maxillary depth was more diminished at T2 in children in the intervention group. Point A, anterior nasal spine, and pogonion were retroposed after surgery, and the anterior spine was higher. At T2, the upper incisors were proinclinated and intruded, and overbite was improved.
Models revealed increased intermolar intercanine width as well as intrusion of upper incisor after surgery. Premaxilla and upper molars were more extruded, had a higher total maxillary height and increased extrusion of upper incisor in children who underwent osteotomy.
Conclusion: After surgery, children who undergo surgery have a premaxilla that is more normalized and more level with the occlusal plane, as well as improved dental inclination. Variables that differentiate children who require osteotomy from those who do not include more extrusion and protrusion of the premaxilla, and a greater extrusion of the upper incisors.
Regeneration of deep intrabony periodontal defects with enamel matrix derivative: A case report
Published on: 19th March, 2021
OCLC Number/Unique Identifier: 9029521328
A clinical case of treatment of two severe intrabony defects on the aesthetic zone is reported and followed for one year.
The biomaterial of choice was enamel matrix derivative (Emdogain®; Straumann™) alone with a preservation papilla flap and a minimally invasive surgical technique.
After surgical treatment, the patient was kept in a supportive periodontal therapy programme with 6-month interval between appointments.
In the one year after surgery appointment, clinical and radiographic changes were observed, showing periodontal health and stability.
