Abstract

We report here on a patient with unilateral cleft lip and alveolus who underwent dental rehabilitation of cleft alveolus using an osseointegrated implant after cleft repair by periosteoplasty. The patient, whose lateral incisor was congenitally missing, had periosteoplasty, followed by excellent bone formation at the cleft alveolus within 2 years. After the completion of orthodontic alignment of the maxillary dental arch, a Brånemark single-tooth implant was placed into the bone-formed alveolus. This treatment procedure offers an option of dental rehabilitation for the alveolar clefts of patients with cleft lip and/or palate.
