Abstract
Background: Conventionally, vector guidance for internal distractor placement during cleft maxillary distraction osteogenesis (DO) is done using vector guidance splint. Vector guidance splint cannot be fabricated if occlusion is not decompensated for model surgery.
Solution: Using mandibular occlusal plane as anatomical reference, vector guidance oral prosthesis is fabricated to guide distractor placement and vector determination, in cases where model surgery is not possible.
What we do that is new: Vector guidance oral prosthesis is a new prototype produced to guide maxillary DO without the need of model surgery.
期刊介绍：
The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal (CPCJ) is the premiere peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary, international journal dedicated to current research on etiology, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment in all areas pertaining to craniofacial anomalies. CPCJ reports on basic science and clinical research aimed at better elucidating the pathogenesis, pathology, and optimal methods of treatment of cleft and craniofacial anomalies. The journal strives to foster communication and cooperation among professionals from all specialties.
