The high occurrence of orofacial cleft, particularly in South-East Asia, and the psychological and social-economic influence of the condition both advocate to rise attention for patient reported health outcomes in treatment evaluation.This especially applies for surgical procedures since these are invasive, rather drastic for patient and family, go along with several risks and are irrevocable, not to mention the financial implications.Several studies have yet been performed in order to generate a proper tool for evaluation of QoLin patients affect with CLP. However, studies are often of limited value and mainly performed among specific populations from developed countries. Moreover, what the effect is of interventions on the QoL measured, remains unanswered.The authors therefore conclude that additional research is ought to be done. The aim of this study is validate a tool for comparing QoL reported by CLP patients who underwent different (surgical) treatment procedures in Indonesia. The twenty-six item WHOQOL-BREF will be used as it is expected to be suitable for this purpose.The study will contribute to improvement of cleft treatment procedures and academic knowledge on quality of life measurement, both in Indonesia and the rest of the world.This will be performed in a cross-sectional study. The WHOQOL consists of four domains covering different facets of QoL. Adjacently, an individual’s perception of their QoL and their health, identification of the relation between QoL and oral health and biographic parameters will be registered separately. The WHOQOL-BREF will be administered to patients affected with the clinical diagnoses of non-syndromicorofacial cleft in all forms and a matching control group on epidemiological fields. Allindividuals should becapable of independently responding the questionnaire.The administration will be done following the WHOQOL-BREF manual. Statistical analyses will be performed using statistical analysis software SPSS and will be done according academic psychometric protocols.

An advanced technology with implants based has now been developed in recent years.Implant with the bridge superstructure method is employed after variety of considerations where it is expected to meet its function, aesthetics, and comfortability.The alveolar bone existed is one reason for the process of adding bone (bonegraft).This case report proposes to determine the successful insertion of a superstructure anterior implant bridge post autograft.Two female patients were asked to use dental implant anterior with bridge system.The first case, the autograft application is made for a 20-year-old woman with edentulous teeth 11, 21, 22. One year later it was then inserted in the area of dental implant fixture 11 and 22. After 9 months, the healing abutments and the superstructure were inserted too.2 weeks after, the abutments of bridge and crowns of teeth 11, 21 and 22 with a pontic in the teeth 21 had been inserted. The second case, a 46-year-old woman with edentulous 11,12,21,22.They want to change the denture because they did not feel comfortable with the removable denture acrylic.Fixture placement was done a year after autograft.Insertion of healing abutments and the superstructure printing can be done after 6 months.A month later implant abutments and crowns could be inserted.Labial fullness is corrected; an implant-retained in the region of 12 and 21, 12, and 22 used the pontic.Prosthodontic rehabilitation with a fixed denture using the implant bridge after autograft anterior maxilla is an alternative fixed denture placement with satisfactory results, aesthetic correction and comfortably.

Ameloblastoma are benign, odontogenic tumors. Depending on the type of ameloblastoma, treatment often consists of curettage, enucleation or resection. Depending on the size of the resection, reconstruction might be indicated. Radiation or chemotherapy is not considered an effective treatment. Recurrence rates differ for each type of ameloblastoma and each treatment. The purpose of this study is to retrospectively map out different treatment methods used in Makassar, Jakarta and Yogyakarta over the past 20 years (1996 – 2016). Data will be provided by dental hospitals of the following universities:Hasannuddin university in Makassar, University of Indonesia in Jakarta and Gadjah Mada university in Yogyakarta. All patients treated during the indicated timeframe will be included. A data collection questionnaire will be designed to collect the necessary information and will be completed for each treated patient. All treatment methods and any peroperative or postoperative complications (up to two weeks), will be collected. An SPSS 23.0 database will be designed for data analysis, statistical calculations depend on the amount of data available.
