Three-dimensional Finite Element Analysis of the Effect of Alveolar Cleft Bone Graft on the Maxillofacial Biomechanical Stabilities of Unilateral Complete Cleft Lip and Palate
Abstract:Background: The objective was to clarify the effect of alveolar cleft bone graft on maxillofacial biomechanical stabilities, the key areas when bone grafting and in which should be supplemented with bone graft once bone resorption occurred in UCCLP (Unilateral Complete Cleft Lip and Palate).Methods: Maxillofacial CAD (Computer Aided Design) models of non-bone graft and full maxilla cleft, full alveolar cleft bone graft, bone graft in other sites of the alveolar cleft were acquired by processing the UCCLP maxil… Show more
