Accuracy of 3D virtual surgery planning for jaw correction
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a new digital method for planning jaw surgery that uses virtual guides instead of traditional splints. It may help make surgery more precise and reduce discomfort.

This trial tests whether a full 3D computer-assisted approach helps better diagnose and correct jaw and facial deformities during orthognathic surgery. It may benefit patients who need surgery to realign their jaws.
This study looks at how the way the upper jaw is positioned during corrective jaw surgery affects the joint's healing over time. It may help people with a specific type of underbite who are already planning to have both upper and lower jaw surgery.
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 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 study tests a new way to plan jaw surgery using 3D computer models, custom guides, and plates. It may help people with a certain type of jaw misalignment get more precise results from their 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.
