Abstract: Objective: To investigate the feasibility of alveolar bulk bone grafting in clinical practice. Methods: 15 cases Of alveolar cleft treated by alveolar bulk bone grafting were analyzed retrospectively. Results: The clinical follow-up over 6-month of 15 cases was finished. 2 patients finished the orthodontic treatment and dental implantation. There were 2 cases with unsatisfied results after 6 months. All the patients could excise normally after 3 months. Conclusions: Alveolar bulk bone grafting, a new surgical approach for alveolar cleft, has satisfactory short-term clinical effects, and the long-term clinical effects need more further studies.
