Bone plate for jaw reconstruction after benign tumor removal
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Cancer, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial is testing a bone plate used to rebuild the lower jaw after removing a non-cancerous growth. It may help patients who need surgery to remove a benign lesion from the center of their jawbone.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a non-cancerous (benign) growth in the middle part of your lower jaw that needs to be removed with a surgery called marginal mandibular resection.
- You do not have a disease that affects how your body heals wounds, like uncontrolled diabetes or other serious health conditions.
- You do not have cancer anywhere in your body.

This trial tests a custom-made metal plate designed to replace a missing piece of your lower jaw bone. It may be a good option if you have a gap in your jaw from a tumor, infection, or injury, as long as the joint near your ear is not involved.
This trial is studying a method to rebuild part of the lower jaw using a blood-supply bone replacement, so you can later get dental rehabilitation. It’s for adults who need a sizable, tumor-free jaw bone reconstruction and who can safely undergo surgery.
This trial tests two types of custom-made plates used to fix broken jawbones. One is titanium (a strong metal) and the other is PEEK (a medical plastic). Both are shaped to fit your jaw. The goal is to help the bone heal properly after surgery.
This trial tests a special plate to fix certain types of broken jawbones. It may help patients who have a recent, clean break that needs surgery.
This study compares two ways to rebuild a large missing section of your lower jaw using a piece of your own leg bone (called a fibula flap). The goal is to see which method creates better facial symmetry and a more natural result.
This trial compares two ways to fix a broken lower jaw angle: using a standard metal plate (Champy plate) versus a custom-made plate guided by computer imaging. The goal is to see which approach restores jaw function best with fewer complications.
