Custom plates to fix uneven jaw in facial asymmetry
This trial tests whether custom-made surgical plates can more accurately correct a tilted upper jaw (maxillary cant) in people with facial asymmetry. It aims to improve surgical precision and outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are older than 18 years

- Your face is asymmetrical (not balanced left and right)
- You have not been diagnosed with a craniofacial syndrome
- You have no history of tumors or trauma in the face or jaw area

This trial tests two types of custom-made plates used to fix broken jawbones. One is titanium (a strong metal) and the other is PEEK (a medical plastic). Both are shaped to fit your jaw. The goal is to help the bone heal properly after surgery.
This trial compares using two custom titanium miniplates versus four to fix the upper jaw after surgery to correct jaw and teeth misalignment. The goal is to see which approach provides better stability and healing.
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 compares two ways to fix a broken lower jaw angle: using a standard metal plate (Champy plate) versus a custom-made plate guided by computer imaging. The goal is to see which approach restores jaw function best with fewer complications.
This trial tests whether using a personalized surgical guide and custom plate helps surgeons repair cheekbone and upper jaw fractures more accurately. The goal is to improve how well the bones heal and how your face looks after surgery.
This study compares two types of titanium plates (3D-printed vs. traditionally milled) used to hold the upper jaw in place after corrective jaw surgery. It aims to see which type is more accurate and reduces surgery time, which could mean a faster recovery for you.
