Key Points

This research aims to create customized 3D bone grafts for effective alveolar cleft repair using advanced modeling techniques.
Developed a methodology leveraging computed tomography data for customizing 3D bone grafts.
Used mirroring technology and manual refinement for accurate modeling.
Conducted independent 3-dimensional modeling of grafts by two operators to assess reproducibility.
Demonstrated high intraclass correlation coefficient indicating stable design reproducibility.
Paired t test showed satisfactory symmetry in piriform aperture dimensions.
Strong positive correlation found between bone defect volume and 3D graft volume (r=0.991, p=0.000).
