3D-printed model improves understanding of jaw surgery
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether a 3D-printed model of your jaw helps you better understand your upcoming double or triple jaw surgery. It aims to improve how patients grasp their procedure and recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are scheduled for double-jaw or triple-jaw surgery.
- You are not having a re-do or revision surgery.
- You do not have a psychiatric disorder.
- You are not only getting orthodontic treatment (braces alone).
- You are not having single-jaw surgery.

This trial uses computer scans to create facial shape meshes for patients who had jaw surgery to correct an underbite. It aims to improve planning for future surgeries.
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 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 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 study looks at using 3D-printed models made from your CT scan to help surgeons repair a broken lower jaw (mandible). It may help the surgical team plan more accurately and improve the repair process after a jaw fracture.
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.
