Nerve block for jaw surgery pain relief
Part of Pain clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Having double-jaw surgery (upper and lower jaw together)
- Healthy enough for surgery (ASA score I or II)
- Between 18 and 45 years old
- No allergy to local anesthetics
- No prior jaw surgery, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or long-term pain

This trial tests whether blocking a specific nerve in the face (sphenopalatine ganglion) during pituitary tumor surgery improves the surgeon's view and reduces bleeding. Pituitary adenomas are non-cancerous tumors in the brain that are removed through the nose using a camera.
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 whether numbing a nerve inside the nose (called a sphenopalatine ganglion block) on both sides can reduce pain after septoplasty, a surgery to straighten the cartilage and bone inside the nose. If you're having this surgery, the treatment might help you feel less pain afterward.
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 study tests a numbing injection near a nerve in the nose (called a sphenopalatine ganglion block) to see if it reduces pain after tonsil removal in children. The goal is to help children recover with less discomfort.
This study tests a nerve block (called sphenopalatine ganglion block) for pain relief after pituitary tumor surgery through the nose. It aims to see if this block helps manage pain and reduces the need for other pain medicines.
