RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: This investigation aimed to assess the optimal timing for lip repair in children with cleft lip and palate via 3D anthropometric analysis to evaluate their maxillofacial structures. METHODS: The sample comprised 252 digitized dental models, divided into groups according to the following timing of lip repair: G1 (n = 50): 3 months; G2 (n = 50): 5 and 6 months; G3 (n = 26): 8 and 10 months. Models were evaluated at two-time points: T1: before lip repair; T2: at 5 years of age. Linear measurements, area, and Atack index were analyzed. RESULTS: At T1, the intergroup analysis revealed that G1 had statistically significant lower means of I-C', I-C, C-C', and the sum of the segment areas compared to G2 (p = 0.0140, p = 0.0082, p = 0.0004, p < 0.0001, respectively). In addition, there was a statistically significant difference when comparing the cleft area between G2 and G3 (p = 0.0346). At T2, the intergroup analysis revealed that G1 presented a statistically significant mean I-C' compared to G3 (p = 0.0461). In the I-CC' length analysis, G1 and G3 showed higher means when compared to G2 (p = 0.0039). The I-T' measurement was statistically higher in G1 than in G2 (p = 0.0251). In the intergroup growth rate analysis, G1 and G2 showed statistically significant differences in the I-C' measurement compared to G3 (p = 0.0003). In the analysis of the Atack index, there was a statistically significant difference between G1 and the other sample sets (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: Children who underwent surgery later showed better results in terms of the growth and development of the dental arches.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: This study analyzed the systemic and oral abnormalities in individuals with Kabuki syndrome (KS) that might be investigated to enhance the early diagnosis and treatment by a multidisciplinary team, minimizing the consequences to the individual's health. STUDY DESIGN: Clinical examination was conducted on 15 individuals to investigate orodental alterations such as tooth abnormalities and cleft lip and/or palate, and the patient records were also reviewed to investigate systemic diseases such as cardiopathies, infectious and immunologic diseases, nephropathies, and delayed neuropsychomotor development. RESULTS: All individuals with KS presented cleft lip and/or palate, 11 (73.34%) tooth abnormalities, 5 (33.34%) congenital cardiopathies, 12 (80%) infectious or immunologic diseases, 1 (6.67%) nephropathy, and 14 (93.34%) had an intellectual disability. CONCLUSION: Individuals with KS often have dental anomalies such as hypodontia, cleft or palate, and systemic disorders such as congenital heart disease and infectious diseases. Intellectual disability is present in most cases. These alterations should be investigated as early as possible to prevent the increase in morbidity in these individuals.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of photobiomodulation in the bone regeneration of critical-sized defects (CSD) filled with inorganic bovine bone associated or not with collagen membranes. The study has been conducted on 40 critical defects in the calvaria of male rats, divided into four experimental groups (n = 10): (1) DBBM (deproteinized bovine bone mineral); (2) GBR (DBBM+collagen membrane); (3) DBBM+P (DBBM+photobiomodulation); and (4) GBR+P (GBR+photobiomodulation). At 30 days postoperative, the animals were euthanized, and after the tissue had been processed, histological, histometric, and statistical analyses were performed. The analyses have taken into account newly formed bone area (NBA), linear bone extension (LBE), and residual particle area (RPA) as variables. The Kruskal-Wallis test has been performed, followed by the Dwass-Steel-Critchlow-Fligner test for comparison between groups (p < 0.05). When the DBBM+P group was compared to the DBBM group, it was possible to observe significant statistical differences in all the variables analyzed (p < 0.05). The application of photobiomodulation in guided bone regeneration (GBR+P) has shown a decrease in the median value for the RPA variable (26.8) when compared to the GBR group (32.4), with a significant statistical difference; however, for NBA and LBE, the therapy has not provided significant results.

RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To compare dental positional and gingival parameters of maxillary anterior teeth in unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) after orthodontic treatment with canine substitution due to lateral incisor agenesis. METHODS: This split-mouth study comprised 57 subjects with UCLP (31 male, 26 female) and agenesis of maxillary lateral incisor at the cleft side, from a single center. Canine substitution was completed after the secondary alveolar bone graft. Dental models were taken between 2 to 6 months after debonding (mean age: 20.4 years). The following variables were measured in the maxillary anterior teeth: crown height, width, proportion, and symmetry, as well as steps between incisal edges, gingival margins, tooth mesiodistal angulation and labiolingual inclination. Paired t-tests with Bonferroni post-hoc correction was used for comparisons between cleft and non-cleft sides (p<0.05). RESULTS: At the cleft side, canines replacing missing lateral incisors had a higher crown height (0.77mm) and an increased width (0.67mm), and first premolars showed a shorter crown height (1.39mm). Asymmetries were observed in the gingival level of central and lateral incisors, with a greater clinical crown at the cleft side (0.61 and 0.81mm, respectively). Cleft side central incisors were more upright than their contralaterals (2.12º). CONCLUSIONS: Maxillary anterior teeth demonstrated positional, size and gingival height differences between cleft and non-cleft side after space closure of maxillary lateral incisor agenesis. Slight asymmetries in tooth position and gingival margin in the maxillary anterior teeth should be expected after orthodontic treatment in UCLP patients.

The objective of this systematic review was to identify the available scientific evidence on bone substitutes (BSs) compared with autogenous bone grafts (ABGs) for regeneration of horizontal bone resorption in the anterior maxillary alveolar process, aiming at rehabilitation with endosseous implants. This review was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines (2020) and registered in the database PROSPERO (CRD: 42017070574). The databases searched were PUBMED/MEDLINE, EMBASE, SCOPUS, SCIENCE DIRECT, WEB OF SCIENCE, and CENTRAL COCHRANE, in the English language. The Australian National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) and Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool were used to assess the study's quality and risk of bias. A total of 524 papers were found. After the selection process, 6 studies were selected for review. A total of 182 patients were followed for a period of 6 to 48 months. The mean age of patients was 46.46 years, and 152 implants were installed in the anterior region. Two studies achieved a reduced graft and implant failure rate, whereas the remaining 4 studies had no losses. It may be concluded that the use of ABGs and some BSs is a viable alternative for the rehabilitation with implants in individuals with anterior horizontal bone loss. However, additional randomized controlled trials are warranted due to the limited number of papers.

RESUMO Objetivo: O presente trabalho teve como objetivo comparar parâmetros dentários posicionais e gengivais de dentes anteriores superiores em pacientes com fissura labiopalatina transforame unilateral (FLPTU) após tratamento ortodôntico com substituição de incisivo lateral ausente por canino, devido a agenesia. Métodos: Esse estudo de boca dividida reuniu uma amostra, de um mesmo centro especializado de tratamento, de 57 indivíduos com FLPTU (31 homens, 26 mulheres) e agenesia do incisivo lateral superior no lado da fissura. A substituição do incisivo lateral por um canino foi concluída após o enxerto ósseo alveolar secundário. Os modelos dentários foram obtidos entre dois e seis meses após a remoção do aparelho (idade média: 20,4 anos). Foram mensuradas nos dentes anteriores as variáveis: altura, largura, proporção e simetria da coroa, bem como as distâncias entre as bordas incisais, margens gengivais, angulação mesiodistal e inclinação vestibulolingual. O teste t pareado com correção post-hoc de Bonferroni foi usado para comparações entre os lados fissurados e não fissurados (p<0,05). Resultados: No lado fissurado, os caninos que substituíram os incisivos laterais ausentes apresentaram uma altura de coroa maior (0,77 mm) e uma largura aumentada (0,67 mm). Os primeiros pré-molares apresentaram uma altura de coroa menor (1,39 mm). Assimetrias foram observadas no nível gengival dos incisivos centrais e laterais, com maior coroa clínica no lado fissurado (0,61 e 0,81mm, respectivamente). Os incisivos centrais do lado fissurado estavam mais intruídos do que os contralaterais (2,12 mm). Conclusão: Os dentes anteriores superiores demonstraram diferenças de posição, tamanho e altura gengival entre os lados fissurado e não fissurado, após o fechamento do espaço da agenesia dos incisivos laterais superiores. Leves assimetrias na posição do dente e margem gengival nos dentes anteriores superiores devem ser esperadas após o tratamento ortodôntico em pacientes com fissura labiopalatina transforame unilateral.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: It is necessary to analyze and monitor the facial growth of orofacial cleft patients. The documentation should therefore begin before and after primary surgeries. Technological evolution has transformed plaster models into 3D images through scanners that allow rational storage, manipulation, and rotation without the possibility of breakage or damage. Based on this fact, this narrative review aims to provide a feature on the three-dimensional tools available for the assessment of dental arches in children with orofacial cleft and mixed dentition. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Three databases were chosen (PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Scopus) and keywords were used to select papers. RESULTS: During the database screening, 292 potentially relevant papers were found. After removing duplicates, titles, and abstracts, 32 papers presented qualifications for analysis. Through evaluating each document by reading it one by one, 24 papers fulfilled the eligibility criteria. CONCLUSIONS: It was concluded that digital tools-i.e., benchtop scanners which evaluate the dental arches of children with cleft lip, palate, and mixed dentition-are reproducible and reliable, without the use of ionizing radiation, allow storage, manipulation with sustainability, and help preserve the environment.
RESUMEN
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Reports on the impact of fixed partial denture treatments on the quality of life of patients with cleft lip and palate are lacking. PURPOSE: The purpose of this cross-sectional clinical study was to assess the impact of fixed partial dentures on the quality of life of adults with cleft lip and palate. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 52 participants (23 women and 29 men) with cleft lip and palate, aged between 20 and 50 years old, and who required treatment with fixed partial dentures were enrolled in the study. They responded to the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP)-14 questionnaire before and 30 days after the fixed prosthodontic treatment. The final value from the OHIP-14 was generated by totaling the 14 answers, giving a range from 0 to 56, with higher values indicating a worse relationship between oral health and the quality of life. Nonparametric statistical analysis was performed with the Wilcoxon test (α=.05). RESULTS: Forty-six participants reported some negative experience before the fixed partial denture, and 48 indicated an improved quality of life 30 days after delivery. All domains assessed showed significant quality of life improvements between the periods compared (P≤.014). CONCLUSIONS: Oral treatment with fixed partial dentures improved the quality of life in adults with cleft lip and palate.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic periodontal status of impacted permanent maxillary central incisors (Mx.1) after a long term of orthodontic traction. METHODOLOGY: This split-mouth study evaluated a sample of 11 patients (five females, six males) treated with Mx.1 unilateral traction one to 28 years after the removal of orthodontic appliances. The traction Group (TG) consisted of 11 Mx.1 and the Comparison Group (CG) comprised 11 spontaneously erupted contralateral Mx.1. High-resolution CBCT exams of central incisors were performed using Accuitomo (J. Morita, Kyoto, Japan). Cross-section imagens passing through the center of maxillary central incisors were used to measure buccal and lingual alveolar bone level. Presence of fenestration, root dilacerations, root coverage, and position of the root apex were also assessed in the same images. Clinical parameters included periodontal probing depth, attachment level, gingival bleeding index, plaque index, degree of gingival recession, amount of gingival mucosa, and evaluation of interproximal papilla and black triangle. Digital model analysis included an assessment of clinical crown height and width. Intergroup comparisons were performed using paired t-, McNemar's, and Wilcoxon tests (p<0.05). RESULTS: Compared to CG, we found a significantly thinner labial bone plate thickness in TG at the middle (p=0.000) and apical (p=0.009) root level. We also observed an apical displaced labial bone crest level in TG (p=0.000). The Traction Group showed a greater frequency of root dilacerations and gingival recessions, a decreased amount of keratinized mucosa, and a decreased clinical attachment level at the labial aspect compared to contralateral teeth. CONCLUSIONS: A decreased thickness and height of labial alveolar bone and gingival recessions were found in maxillary central incisors 15 years after orthodontic traction. Though incisor traction might cause some periodontal impact, differences are acceptable under a clinical point of view considering the cost-benefit ratio.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to evaluate longitudinally the volume of the dental arches in children with unilateral cleft lip and palate before and after the rehabilitative plastic surgeries. This is a longitudinal retrospective study was composed by 102 digitized dental casts of children with unilateral complete cleft lip (G1) and cleft lip and palate (G2). The palate volume was evaluated at 3 periods: preoperative (T1), postoperative 1 (T2), and postoperative 2 (T3). The intra- and inter-examiner reliability was analyzed by Wilcoxon test/Dahlberg formula and interclass correlation coefficient, respectively. The intragroup comparison was analyzed by Wilcoxon test and Friedman test followed by post-hoc Dunn test. Mann-Whitney test was applied for the intergroup comparison (α = 5%). G1 had a significant growth at T2 (Pâ=â0.031). G2 demonstrated a positive development at T2, but decreased at T3 (Pâ=â0.003). The intergroup analysis revealed that G2 showed a greater volume at T1 and T2 (Pâ<â0.0001 and Pâ=â0.0024, respectively). T2-T1 exhibited no statistically significant difference (Pâ=â0.262). In conclusion, there was a volumetric increase in the dental arches after cheiloplasty followed by a reduction after palatoplasty. Further investigations are necessary to validate the preliminary results of the present study.

A fotobiomodulação sistêmica (FBM-S) consiste em uma técnica que utiliza o laser de baixa intensidade no espectro vermelho da luz para irradiação sistêmica. Seus benefícios incluem efeito analgésico, antioxidante sistêmico e anti-inflamatório, ativação de células imunológicas, melhora na cicatrização, vasodilatação e aumento da microcirculação. A técnica original, que utiliza cateter e fibra óptica para irradiação sistêmica, é uma técnica invasiva, por isso a fotobiomodulação sistêmica transdérmica foi desenvolvida como uma alternativa. Assim, o objetivo dessa revisão de literatura é discutir os efeitos, aplicações, protocolos e efeitos colaterais desta terapia modificada. Para tanto, foi realizada uma busca na literatura nas bases de dados Pubmed, Bireme, Embase, Scopus, Science Direct, Web of Science e CENTRAL, sem restrição de idioma no período entre 2010 e 2021. Encontraram-se seis estudos sendo um na área da Odontologia. Os resultados desses estudos sugerem que a FBS-S pode ser utilizada para o tratamento de condições sistêmicas. Em Odontologia, no entanto, a literatura ainda é escassa e mais estudos clínicos randomizados controlados são necessários para comprovar seus efeitos e estabelecer um protocolo clínico para sua utilização.
Systemic photobiomodulation (PBM-S) is a technique that uses low-level laser in the red spectrum of light for systemic irradiation. Its benefits include analgesic, systemic antioxi-dant, and anti-inflammatory effect, activation of immune cells, improved healing, vasodilation, and increased microcirculation. The original technique, which uses catheter and optical fibers for systemic irradiation is an invasive technique. Thus, the transdermal systemic photobiomodulation was developed as an alternative. The purpose of this literature review is to discuss the effects, applications, protocols, and side effects of this modified therapy. A literature search was carried out on Pubmed, Bireme, Embase, Scopus, Science Direct, Web of Science, and CENTRAL databases, with no language restriction in the period be-tween 2010 and 2021. Six studies were found, one in the area of Dentistry. The results of these studies suggest that PBM-S can be used for the treatment of systemic conditions. In Dentistry, however, the literature is still scarce and more randomized controlled clinical trials are needed to prove its effects and establish a protocol for its use.

Aim: To report on a surgical procedure with osteotomy in the posterior region of the maxilla and lifting of the maxillary sinus floor for the installation of implants and rehabilitation with implant-supported crowns. Case report: A 54-year-old female patient was admitted to the dental clinic, complaining that she was dissatisfied with her smile and the missing teeth. After the clinical, radiographic, and tomographic examinations, a well as a case study of a semi-adjustable articulator, multidisciplinary planning was carried out using surgical, endodontic, periodontic, orthodontic, and prosthetic approaches. A lack of interocclusal space was observed in the posterior region of the maxilla. After osteotomy in tuberosity, maxillary sinus lift using an autogenous bone graft was performed, and three implants were installed. After the osseointegration period, provisional crowns were placed, followed by definitive metal-ceramic crowns. Conclusion:The surgical techniques used in this clinical case made it possible to install implants in a single clinical session for prosthetic rehabilitation.
Introdução: A reabilitação oral envolve um tratamento integrado, que inclui diversas especialidades odontológicas para restabelecer os aspectos estéticos e funcionais, resultando também na satisfação do paciente. Objetivo: O objetivo foi relatar um procedimento cirúrgico com osteotomia na região posterior da maxila e levantamento do assoalho do seio maxilar para instalação de implantes e reabilitação com coroas implantossuportadas. Relato de caso: Paciente do sexo feminino, 54 anos, apresentou-se ao ambulatório queixando-se de insatisfação com o sorriso e com a falta de dentes. Após os exames clínicos, radiográficos, tomográficos e estudo de caso em articulador semi-ajustável, foi realizado o planejamento multidisciplinar com abordagens cirúrgica, endodôntica, periodontal, ortodôntica e protética. Observou-se falta de espaço interoclusal na região posterior da maxila. Após a osteotomia na tuberosidade, foi realizada a elevação do seio maxilar com enxerto ósseo autógeno e foram instalados três implantes. Posteriormente, no período de osseointegração, foram colocadas coroas provisórias e, posteriormente, coroas metalocerâmicas definitivas. Conclusão: As técnicas cirúrgicas utilizadas neste caso clínico possibilitaram a instalação de implantes em uma única sessão clínica para a reabilitação protética.

RESUMEN
Objetivo: avaliar, radiograficamente, a prevalência, extensão e severidade da reabsorção dentária em dentes adjacentes à área de fissura após enxerto ósseo alveolar. Métodos: radiografias de 200 indivíduos com fissura unilateral e bilateral, alveolar e palatina, foram analisadas para se investigar a presença de reabsorção dentária relacionada com o enxerto ósseo. No total, 1.315 radiografias foram analisadas (periapical, oclusal e radiografias panorâmicas), obtidas a partir de 200 indivíduos com fissura labiopalatina unilateral e bilateral completa ubmetidos a cirurgia de enxerto, disponíveis a partir dos arquivos da Seção de Radiologia do HRAC-USP. Resultados: entre os 200 indivíduos, 33 tinham reabsorções dentárias externas. Dessas, 15 estavam presentes nas radiografias pré-operatórias e 18 só depois do enxerto ósseo. No geral, 30 reabsorções localizaram- se no terço apical da raiz e 3 no terço cervical; o incisivo central esquerdo foi o mais afetado. Não foram observadas reabsorções dentárias no terço médio da raiz e nenhuma reabsorção afetou mais de um terço. Não existiu diferença estatisticamente significativa entre a idade do paciente durante a cirurgia de enxerto ósseo e a presença de reabsorção dentária externa. Conclusões: a prevalência da reabsorção dentária em dentes adjacentes à área da fissura em indivíduos submetidos a enxerto ósseo foi baixa (16,5%). O terço apical da raiz foi o local mais frequente de reabsorção radicular externa, e não houve reabsorções afetando mais de um terço da raiz. (AU)

Cleft lip, alveolus and palate is a congenital malformation caused by the lack of fusion of the lip and palate embryonic processes, which may disrupt the main functions of the stomatognathic system. Aim: This study aimed to assess the orofacial dysfunction in individuals with cleft lip, alveolus, and palate compared to non-cleft patients. One hundred and twenty individuals between 32 and 65 years of age were selected in the Craniofacial Center and in the School of Dentistry and divided into two groups: non-cleft patients (N-CLAP) and cleft lip, alveolus, and palate patients (CLAP). The two groups were matched by gender. Each individual was interviewed and submitted to a clinical evaluation during which the NOT-S was used to assess orofacial dysfunction. To verify the intra-examiner agreement, the values were compared using the Kappa test. The Mann-Whitney test compared performance on the NOT-S between the groups. The Chi-Square test compared the NOT-S domains between the groups. A comparison of the NOT-S scores between the groups revealed statistically significant differences in gender (p<0.001), but no statistically significant differences in the intragroup gender comparison were found. The assessment of the NOT-S domains between the N-CLAP and CLAP groups exhibited statistically significant differences in domains: breathing (p=0.021), chewing and swallowing (p<0.001), and dryness of the mouth (p=0.002) of the interview and significant differences in all domains of the clinical examination (p<0.001). Individuals with CLAP showed more orofacial dysfunction than non-cleft patients, without gender differences, after being assessed through the NOT-S.

Resumo A fissura de lábio, alvéolo e palato é uma malformação congênita causada pela falta de fusão dos processos embrionários labial e palatino, que podem comprometer as principais funções do sistema estomatognático. Utilizando o Nordic Orofacial Test - Screening (NOT-S), este estudo transversal observacional, objetivou avaliar a presença da disfunção orofacial nos indivíduos com fissura de lábio, alvéolo e palato em relação a indivíduos sem fissura ou anomalia craniofacial. Cento e vinte indivíduos entre 32 e 65 anos de idade foram selecionados e divididos em dois grupos: pacientes sem fissura labiopalatina (N-CLAP) e pacientes com fissura de lábio, alvéolo e palato (CLAP). Os dois grupos foram combinados por gênero. Cada indivíduo foi entrevistado e submetido a uma avaliação clínica durante a qual o NOT-S foi utilizado para avaliar a disfunção orofacial. O teste de Mann-Whitney comparou desempenho no NOT-S entre os grupos. O teste Qui-Square comparou os domínios NOT-S entre os grupos. A concordância intra-examinador foi K=0,75. Uma comparação dos escores de NOT-S entre os grupos revelou diferenças estatisticamente significativas no gênero (p<0,001), mas não foram encontradas diferenças estatisticamente significativas na comparação de gênero intragrupo. A avaliação dos domínios de NOT-S entre os grupos N-CLAP e CLAP apresentou diferenças estatisticamente significativas nos domínios II (p=0,021), IV (p<0,001) e VI (p=0,002) da entrevista e diferenças significativas em todos os domínios do exame clínico (p<0,001). Indivíduos com CLAP apresentaram maior presença de disfunção orofacial do que os indivíduos sem fissura labioapalatina, conforme avaliado pelo NOT-S.

Objetivo: o objetivo desta revisão integrativa crítica foi investigar a relação de fissuras labiopalatinas com doenças gengivais, correlacionando-as à qualidade de vida, de modo a fornecer esclarecimento sobre a temática, mesmo que sejam necessários mais estudos de acompanhamento longitudinal neste tema. Revisão de literatura: a Organização Mundial de Saúde define qualidade de vida correlacionada à condição bucal como a autopercepção do indivíduo sobre a influência de sua condição oral em aspectos relacionados ao seu bem-estar geral, é plausível que ocorra associação com a doença periodontal, além disso, o possível impacto que tais condições podem desempenhar na vida dos indivíduos com fissura labiopalatina ainda é pouco conhecido, tornando-se relevante sintetizar dados dessa provável associação. Considerações finais: a presente revisão enfatizou a análise crítica de estudos transversais e longitudinais, supondo que a adequada compreensão das particularidades desses estudos favoreça o entendimento do impacto das doenças gengivais, associada a pacientes com fissura labiopalatina, e tendo como base que o entendimento desses fatores podem implicar no bem-estar da população estudada, servindo de auxílio na tomada terapêutica e no modo de agir do cirurgião-dentista. Portanto, mais estudos com qualidade metodológica são necessários nesta temática, podendo contribuir para uma definição mais clara da possível associação de piores escores de higiene a um impacto na qualidade de vida de indivíduos com fissura labiopalatina.(AU)
Objective: This critical integrative review aimed to investigate the relationship between cleft lip and palate and gingival diseases, correlating them to quality of life to provide clarification on the subject, even if further studies on long-term follow-up on this subject are required. Literature review: The World Health Organization defines oral health-related quality of life as the self-perception of individuals on the influence of their oral condition - in aspects related to their general well-being. It is likely associated with periodontal disease. Moreover, the impact that such conditions may have on the life of individuals with cleft lip and palate is still little known, making it relevant to synthesize the data of this potential association. Final considerations: The present review focused on the critical analysis of cross-sectional and longitudinal studies, assuming that an adequate appreciation of the particularities of these studies favors the understanding of the impact of gingival disease associated with patients with cleft lip and palate. The understanding of these factors may imply in the well-being of the population studied, aiding the therapeutic choice and the conduct of dentists. Therefore, further studies with methodological quality are required on this subject, which may contribute to a clearer definition of the potential association of worse hygiene scores with an impact on the quality of life of individuals with cleft lip and palate.(AU)

Objective This study analyzed the maintenance of lateral incisors in the dental rehabilitation of individuals with cleft lip and palate. Material and Methods The study was conducted on a tertiary craniofacial center and comprised retrospective analysis of panoramic and periapical radiographs of Caucasoid individuals with non-syndromic complete unilateral cleft lip and palate, analyzing all radiographs available on the records of each individual, from the first to the last up to 12 years of age. Overall, 2,826 records were reviewed to achieve a sample of 1,000 individuals. Among these, 487 individuals presented the permanent lateral incisors on both cleft and non-cleft sides, which were included in this study. Results The results were evaluated in percentages and by descriptive statistics. The association between maintenance of the lateral incisor and timing of alveolar bone graft were analyzed by the t test. Among the 487 individuals, 265 had not completed treatment, 62 presented insufficient information, and 44 concluded the treatment elsewhere. Among the remaining 116 individuals, the lateral incisor was extracted from 88 (75.86%) of them on the cleft side (CS) and from 23 (19.83%) people on the non-cleft side (NCS). The age at accomplishment of alveolar bone graft was significantly associated with maintenance of the lateral incisor on the cleft side (p<0.01). Most extractions were indicated because of the inadequate positioning on the CS and for midline correction on the NCS. Rehabilitation was primarily completed by orthodontic movement (53 individuals on the CS and 13 individuals on the NCS). Conclusion In conclusion, the lateral incisor on the cleft side was not maintained in most individuals. Positive relationship was observed between extraction of the lateral incisor and age at accomplishment of the alveolar bone graft, suggesting the need to anticipate the initial radiographic evaluation to enhance its maintenance and reduce the procedures required for rehabilitation.
