Nerve blocks in preserved cadavers for jaw numbing
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial studies nerve blocks in embalmed cadavers to improve techniques for numbing the upper and lower jaw. It's not a treatment study for patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- The specimen must be an embalmed cadaver
- The cadaver must have no known disease of the upper jaw (maxilla)

This study tests whether an ultrasound-guided injection near the nerves in the cheek can reduce pain after jaw surgery. It may help you recover with less discomfort.
This study tests a numbing “nerve block” to see how well it controls pain for people having planned facial/jaw surgery. If you’re eligible, you’d receive the study’s nerve-block approach during your operation.
This trial tests a nerve block treatment for people with long-term jaw pain that hasn't improved with other treatments. It aims to see if this injection can help reduce pain.
This trial tests whether a nerve block behind the nose can reduce pain after double-jaw surgery. It may help patients who are having this surgery and want better pain control.
This trial studies how a “temporomasseteric nerve block” (a numbing shot near jaw muscles) works in healthy volunteers. It’s mainly looking at safety and how people respond—so it’s not for treating an existing jaw pain condition.
This trial is building a database to study ultrasound-guided nerve blocks (injecting numbing medicine around nerves using ultrasound). It may help researchers learn how to better manage pain.
