Comparing two plates for fixing jaw angle fractures
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of metal plates used to fix a broken lower jaw angle. It aims to see which method works better and helps patients heal faster.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a recent (not old) fracture of the lower jaw angle.
- The fracture is clean and not infected.
- You need surgery to fix the bone.
- You are healthy enough for surgery (no serious medical conditions).
- The fracture is not caused by a disease (like a tumor).

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 compares two types of small metal plates used in surgery to fix a broken lower jaw near the chin. The goal is to see which plate holds the bone better and helps you heal.
This study compares two different ways to hold a broken lower jaw (mandible) in place while it heals. One way uses a small plate with a special extension, and the other uses two standard plates. It may help people with this type of fracture heal better with less surgery.
This trial tests a special plate to fix certain types of broken jawbones. It may help patients who have a recent, clean break that needs surgery.
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.
