| Popis: | A 12-year-old boy with a bilateral cleft lip and alveolus underwent premaxillary osteotomy simultaneously to bilateral alveolar bone grafting and subsequent orthodontic tooth alignment. With a premaxillary osteotomy, the bone surface behind the premaxilla and posterior part of the alveolar cleft was sufficiently exposed for a wide graft bed to be successfully created. As a result of the grafting, postoperative orthodontic tooth alignment enabled completion of the maxillary dental arch without the need for a conventional dental prosthesis. |
