Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Presence of associated craniofacial syndromes and comorbidities, as well as diseases or use of medications that may influence the preparation of the Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to observe a greater alveolar bone fill after 12 months, verified through cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), using ITK-Snap and 3D Slicer software for three-dimensional volumetric measurement of the alveolar cleft defect before and after surgery The outcome will be quantified by the percentage of new bone formation, calculated using the formula (Vf-Vdd)/Vf, where Vf represents the preoperative cleft volume and Vdd the volume of the non-mineralized area after 12 months Bone formation greater than 75% will be considered satisfactory | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate the quality of bone repair at the mandibular symphysis donor site, verified through CBCT and volumetric segmentation using ITK-Snap and 3D Slicer software, measuring bone regeneration volume at the donor site 12 months postoperatively A recovery greater than 75% of the harvested volume will be considered satisfactory | — |
