The biomechanical evaluation of magnetic forces to drive osteogenesis in newborn’s with cleft lip and palate

Abstract This study examined the potential for dental magnets to act as a driving force for osteogenesis in the palate of newborns with a unilateral cleft lip and palate. In the first part of the study dental magnets were arranged in a set up mimicking a distraction device and the curves of the magn...
