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 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 types of metal plates used to fix a broken lower jaw angle. It aims to see which method works better and helps patients heal faster.
This trial tests a computer method to plan safe removal of a non-cancerous jaw tumor called ameloblastoma. It may help surgeons see the exact area to remove to reduce the chance of the tumor coming back.
