“…Although recent studies suggest successful results for midface distraction in mature patients with cleft lip and palate [7,8,11] the outcome of using IDDs for maxillary advancement in these patients was disappointing. A gain of maxillary advancement was achieved in both cases, but the aim to bridge the planned distance completely to reach a convexity of the face and an anterior over-bite failed.…”

Purpose We evaluated case-sensitive limitations of internal distraction devices (IDDs) to reveal further options for satisfactory outcomes. Patients and Methods Two male cleft patients aged 22 years (P1) and 20 years (P2) with severe maxillary hypoplasia were treated over 18 months. Cephalometric analyses and analyses of A-point movements by superimposing lateral cephalograms were done before and after activation of IDDs and after bimaxillary surgery (BIMAX). Results After activating IDDs, the vectors deviated and clockwise rotation of the maxilla and vectors occurred. After 8 months, BIMAX was needed to carry out further maxillary advancement. Conclusions IDDs could pave the way to achieve maximal advancement with BIMAX in a second step and justify the overall treatment when comparing the initial situation with outcome.

“…Because many of cleft patients were present with vertical maxillary deficiency, surgical correction mostly involved inferior repositioning of the maxilla in conjunction with advancement. Downward movement of maxilla was reported in many studies which include CO [9,11,36,37], EDO [13], and IDO [16,20,22]. Clockwise rotation of the maxilla had been reported with a tendency of posterior open bite in IDO [17,18].…”
