Simulating face soft tissue changes after jaw surgery
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial uses computer simulations to predict how your facial soft tissues will change after corrective jaw surgery. It aims to make the surgical planning more accurate and help you see possible outcomes beforehand.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are having jaw surgery to correct your bite, sleep apnea, or jaw joint problems
- You have had a CT scan before and after surgery (or will have one)
- You are covered by French social security

This trial tests a new way to predict how facial soft tissues will change after jaw surgery using advanced imaging. It may help people needing orthognathic surgery to understand the likely aesthetic outcome.
This trial tests whether using a handheld 3D scanner is as accurate as a standard optical scanner for predicting soft tissue changes after corrective jaw surgery. It aims to find a more convenient and accessible way to plan surgery for patients with an underbite.
This study looks at how patients feel emotionally and physically before and after jaw surgery. It uses special software and questionnaires to track emotions, and checks the jaw joint and muscles after surgery. The goal is to see how these relate to recovery in patients having planned jaw surgery.
This trial tests personalized surgical guides and implants to help surgeons precisely reposition the upper and lower jaw in patients with facial asymmetry or misalignment. The goal is to improve surgical accuracy and final bite alignment.
This study looks at how jaw surgery affects your mood and how you feel about your appearance. You will answer questions one week before surgery and again 6 months after, and you need to use social media as part of the research.
This trial tests if practicing imaginary jaw movements can speed up recovery and improve how well you can open your mouth after orthognathic surgery. It compares this mental practice to a placebo version to see if it actually helps.
