Clinical Trial: Evaluating the Impact of Prefabricated Acrylic Splints on Premaxillary Stability in Alveolar Cleft Bone Graft Repairs: a Randomized Controlled Trial

U.S., Feb. 5 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06807645) titled 'Evaluating the Impact of Prefabricated Acrylic Splints on Premaxillary Stability in Alveolar Cleft Bone Graft Repairs: a Randomized Controlled Trial' on Jan. 24.

Brief Summary: Rationale for conducting the research:

Bilateral alveolar clefts pose significant management challenges, with current treatments like autogenous bone grafting showing instability in up to 40% of cases within a year, risking graft failure and aesthetic issues . Prefabricated acrylic splints may offer a minimally invasive alternative, potentially improving bone graft outcomes and premaxillary stability, crucial for speech, feeding, and respiration.
