Abstract

After the introduction of the distraction osteogenesis procedure to the alveolar region, this method is used in the treatment of many different cases (Chin and Toth 1996). Mainly, the method is preferred in the reconstruction of the alveolar bone in width and length for implant restorations, closure of cleft defects in patients with cleft lip and palate, and restoration of adopted bone defects after tumoral resection.
