Abstract
- Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan university, School of Medicine The cleft alveolus is one of three parts in cleft deformity. The purpose of cleft alveolus bone grafting is the recovery of normal esthetics, occlusion and speech. If a bony defect is extended to the nasal floor, especially wide bony defect at the ala base, it is difficult to condense the cancellous bone during bone transplantation and to reconstruct the normal anatomy at the alar base. We treated with above mentioned cleft alveolus patients using the autogenous cortical bone effectively. We report this technique with two cases and the literatures review.
