3D Evaluation of the Effects of Traumatic Surgical Techniques on Vomer Bone Volume and Morphology in the Treatment of Lip and Palate Clefts

Abstract

3D evaluation of the effects of traumatic surgical techniques on Vomer bone volume and morphology in the treatment of lip and palate clefts 34.69% has bilateral cleft. In 40.63% of the unilateral total cleft cases, cleft was on the right side whereas in 59.37% on the left side. Some researchers regarded the nasal septum as the primary growth center of the midface skeleton. [3,4] The size and volume of the Vomer bone usually show the greatest increase between the 8 th and 21 st weeks of fetal life. Moss named anatomical structures in which functions were carried out as "functional cranial component." A functional cranial component comprised two parts: (1) Functional matrix and
