Rib grafting in infants differs significantly from that in teenagers and adults with minimal pain, no risk of pneumothorax when properly performed, and more than an adequate stock of bone for the alveolar defect.

The rationale behind alveolar cleft repair includes maxillary arch stabilization, closure of the oronasal fistula, nasal base support, nasolabial soft tissue reconstruction, and creation of bony support for tooth eruption or dental implant placement. Currently, the graft material of choice is autogenous bone g...

Radiographic comparison of the repaired bone in maxillary alveolar cleft of dog by tissue engineering and autogenous bone grafting techniques

BACKGROUND: Dental disease, trauma and maxillofacial surgeries can cause alveolar bone defects. Among different kinds of treatment, autogenous bone grafts is accepted as a golden standard. On the other hand, because of limitation of treatment with autogenous bone grafts, osteogenic cells derived from stem cells are suggested. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to compare the mean density of ...
