“…There has been some controversy about the appropriate timing for performing the ACR procedures. Proponents of late mixed grafting (age 9 -12) claim better canine management while proponents to early mixed grafting (age 6 -8) claim the better anterior teeth orthodontic and periodontic management outcome [7,8], reduction of the overall treatment time [9,10], and that simultaneous osseous and soft tissue distraction can be more easily achieved if maxillary expansion takes place after early alveolar grafting [11].…”

Purpose: The purpose of this report is to compare the outcome of unilateral alveolar cleft reconstruction (ACR) in patients aged 6-8 years versus older more comprehending patients aged 9-12 years. Materials and Methods: A chart review (from March 2006 to June 2010) was conducted of patients who had alveolar cleft reconstruction using anterior iliac crest bone graft. All the cases included are non syndromic healthy patients whom had unilateral alveolar cleft and were operated for the first time. A total of 49 healthy patients were included in the study. Twenty-four had their surgery between the age of 6 and 8 (Group A), and twenty-five had theirs between 9 and 12 (Group B). The postoperative recovery and complications were compared between the two groups. Results: In group A, 16% (n = 4) showed minimal wound dehiscence while 8% (n = 2) had a minor wound infection due to food particles wedged in the wound. In Group B, 20% (n = 5) of the patients presented with minimal wound dehiscence, while 12% (n = 3) had minor wound infection due to food particles wedged in the wound. No significant difference was found between the two groups using Fisher's exact test, two-tailed p-value >0.05. Conclusion: Age factor was not found to be a factor contributing to ACR complication rate.

“…A Amalegria é uma associação sem fins lucrativos instalada no Hospital Escola da Faculdade de Imperatriz, patrocinada pela Smile Train (EUA), que assiste os pacientes com fissuras labiopalatinas de Imperatriz-MA e toda a região na realização de cirurgias para a correção das fissuras, e todo o acompanhamento destes com cirurgião bucomaxilofacial, fonoaudióloga, psicóloga e ortodontista. Foram selecionados para compor a amostra pacientes com fissura labial unilateral e bilateral, envolvendo alvéolo e palato, pré-forame e transforame, de ambos os sexos, com idade superior a seis anos de idade, por representar a idade mínima para a colocação de EOA, viabilizando o irrompimento do incisivo central superior, posteriormente do canino superior na região da fissura e estabilização dos segmentos alveolares 21 . Foram incluídos pacientes ainda não-submetidos ao EOA e sem contraindicação local ou sistêmica, o que resultou em um total de 11 pacientes, três mulheres e oito homens, entre seis e 32 anos.…”

Objetivo: Correlacionar medidas de fissuras alveolares obtidas por radiografias convencionais e tomografias computadorizadas do feixe cônico (TCFC). Método: Estudo transversal no qual participaram 11 pacientes com idades entre 6 e 32 anos, com fissuras pré-forame e transforame alveolar, não submetidos ao enxerto ósseo. Foram realizadas radiografias periapicais, oclusais e TCFC. Nas radiografias periapicais, foram mensuradas: a) largura da fissura em relação ao dente adjacente nos terços apical, b) médio, e c) cervical. Nas radiografias oclusais: d) largura da fissura nas superfícies vestibular, e) mediana, e f) na superfície palatina. Nas TCFC: g) a largura da fissura em relação ao dente adjacente nos terços apical, h) médio, e i) cervical, em corte longitudinal panorâmico para a correlação com a radiografia periapical e; j) a largura da fissura nas superfícies vestibular, l) na mediana, e m) palatina, em cortes axiais, para a correlação com a radiografia oclusal. As mensurações foram realizadas nas radiografias com régua milimetrada e nas TCFC pelo i-CAT Vision. Para a análise estatística foi empregado o teste de correlação de Spearman pelo software SPSS Statistics 17 for Windows. Resultados: A) Entre a radiografia periapical e a TCFC, obteve-se o coeficiente de correlação ρ de 0,618 no terço apical (significância de 0,05), 0,556 no terço médio (significância de 0,05) e 0,963 no terço cervical (significância de 0,01); B) Entre a radiografia oclusal e a TCFC, obteve-se correlação de 0,712 na superfície vestibular (significância de 0,01), na mediana 0,568 e na palatina 0,679 (ambos significância de 0,05). Conclusão: Os resultados indicam diferentes coeficientes de correlação positiva entre as medidas obtidas nas radiografias convencionais e na TCFC, sendo maior entre a radiografia periapical e a TCFC no terço cervical e, entre a radiografia oclusal e a TCFC na superfície vestibular. Fissura labial; Fissura palatina; Tomografia computadorizada do feixe cônico.Objective: To assess the correlation between alveolar cleft measurements obtained from conventional radiography and conebeam computed tomography (CBCT). Method: Eleven patients treated at 'Associação Maranhense da Alegria', a non-profit organization that offers treatment to patients with cleft lip and palate, were included in this cross-sectional, descriptive study. All patients presented pre-incisive and trans-incisive foramen clefts and had not been treated with bone grafting. Periapical and occlusal radiographs and CBCT scans were obtained from all patients. The following measurements were determined: on periapical radiographs, cleft width in relation to the adjacent teeth in the a) apical, b) middle, and c) cervical thirds; on occlusal radiographs, cleft width based on the d) buccal, e) middle, and f) palatal aspects of the cleft; on CBCT scans, cleft width in relation to the adjacent teeth in the g) apical, h) middle, and i) cervical thirds, in a panoramic longitudinal section, for the assessment of correlation with periapical radiographic findings, and ...

Premaxilla, in its early descriptions, had the participation of Goethe. In our face, in a certain period of growth and development processes, premaxilla is an independent and, then, a semi-independent bone to finally be totally integrated to the maxilla. Formation of the premaxilla acts as a stabilization element inside the facial skeleton comparable to the cornerstone of a Roman arch and is closely related to the development of human face and its abnormal growth with characteristic malformations. Until when the premaxillary-maxillary suture remains open and offers opportunities to orthopedically influence facial growth to exert influence over facial esthetics and function? Contact with preliminary results in 1183 skulls from anatomic museums at USP, Unicamp and Unifesp led us to question therapeutic perspectives and its clinical applicability.
