Bone-borne Palatal Expander With Corticotomy for Cleft Palate Patients

NCT03837652 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 8

Last updated 2019-02-12

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The tooth-borne palatal expander has limitations in the subset of patients with scarred, constricted cleft palate. At times, although posterior expansion is successful, transverse expansion of the anterior palate (near the alveolar cleft) is inadequate.

Will the application of bone borne palatal expander combined with a corticotomy be more effective in the expansion of the constricted maxilla in cleft palate patients?
