What's the difference between uraniscoplasty and uranoplasty?
Uraniscoplasty
Definition:
(n.) The process of forming an artificial palate.
Example Sentences:
Uranoplasty
Definition:
(n.) The plastic operation for closing a fissure in the hard palate.
Example Sentences:
(1) Mathematical models for the most prevalent sparing uranoplasty methods are offered.
(2) The authors have developed a new working classification of residual defects of the maxillary alveolar process, anterior segment of the hard palate and oronasal anastomosis, based on the results of cheilo- and uranoplasty in 125 patients.
(3) Sixty children with wide palate clefts (open uni- and bilateral, and complete isolated), aged 2.5-13 years were operated on according to a new uranoplasty technique.
(4) The size and proportions of dentitions and relationships between longitudinal, transverse, and vertical parameters of the upper and lower dentitions and palatine processes were examined in 42 children (22 girls and 20 boys), aged 5-6 years, with unilateral complete labiopalatine clefts before uranoplasty.
(5) Early operated patients (uranoplasty) exhibited more often impaired maxillary growth than late operated patients.
(6) Presents a mathematical model of sparing uranoplasty techniques developed by the authors; using this model, a physician may assess before surgery the volume of tissues needed to close the palatal defect.
(7) Baliz-2, a new antibacterial drug, was used to prevent nasopharyngeal infection before and after uranoplasty in 25 children with palatal clefts.
