Coenzyme Q10 for bone growth in cleft palate repair
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether taking coenzyme Q10 (a natural supplement) along with standard bone graft surgery helps rebuild more bone in the cleft area of the upper jaw. It is for teenagers aged 10–14 who are having their first cleft bone graft.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 10 and 14 years old
- Have good oral hygiene (clean teeth and gums)
- Be in generally good health
- Not have a syndrome that causes the cleft (like Pierre Robin sequence or similar)
- Not have had a previous bone graft for the cleft
- Not have an opening (fistula) in the roof of the mouth

This study compares two ways to rebuild the gap in the upper gum (alveolar cleft) using bone taken from either the jaw or the hip. It aims to see which method works better for people who missed the earlier treatment window.
This trial tests a new way to repair a gap in the upper jawbone (called an alveolar cleft) using thin layers of bone, called cortical shells, taken from the patient's own body. It is for children who have not had this surgery before and who are generally healthy.
This trial compares two ways to rebuild the upper gum area in children with a cleft on both sides. One method uses a single solid piece of bone from the hip, the other uses smaller bone chips. The goal is to find which works better for a strong, healthy result.
This trial tests two ways to rebuild the jawbone so there's enough space for a tooth implant. One method uses a mix of man-made bone and donated bone, the other uses man-made bone and your own bone chips. It might help you if you need more bone for an implant in your upper jaw.
This trial tests using a small piece of bone from your lower jaw to rebuild a narrow upper jaw so it can hold a dental implant. It compares using the bone alone versus covering it with a collagen membrane to see which works better.
This study tests a less invasive way to build up bone in the upper jaw so that dental implants can be placed. It uses a special bone graft material and a patient's own blood concentrate to help the bone heal and grow.
