Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Alveolar bone grafting is a standard treatment for patients with cleft lip and palate; however, considerable variability remains in graft survival outcomes. Recent evidence suggests that local microbial environments may influence tissue repair and bone regeneration through modulation of inflammatory and immune responses. This exploratory prospective interventional study aims to evaluate the relationship between oral microbiota and bone graft survival in patients undergoing alveolar bone grafting. In addition, the effects of preoperative probiotic administration (Lactobacillus salivarius LS1) on oral microbiota composition and subsequent bone graft survival will be investigated. The findings of this study may provide a basis for novel perioperative microbial management strategies in oral and maxillofacial surgery.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Bone graft survival rate assessed by three-dimensional volumetric analysis using CT images obtained 6 months after surgery.

Key secondary outcomes

Characteristics of oral microbiota at the alveolar cleft site, normal dentition, and buccal mucosa.
Changes in oral microbiota before and after probiotic administration.
Association between oral microbiota composition and bone graft survival.
Changes in caries-related and periodontal pathogen-associated bacteria.
Adverse events related to probiotic administration.
