  • Title: Secondary bone-grafting for repair of residual cleft defects in the alveolar process and hard palate. A new surgical technique.
    Author: Simonsen EK.
    Journal: Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 1986 Feb; 15(1):1-7. PubMed ID: 3082996.
    Abstract:
    A new surgical technique for secondary bone-grafting for closure of residual clefts in the alveolar process and hard palate is described. The technique improves the anatomy in the cleft region and, thus improves the possibility of total dental rehabilitation. The treatment results based on experiences with 293 patients will be published in a future paper, and must be estimated as promising. The technique minimizes hospitalization as well as post-operative discomfort.
