Custom Plate for Lower Jaw Bone Defects
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a missing section of bone in your lower jaw, but not near the joint where your jaw connects to your skull.
- The missing bone may be due to a growth (benign or cancerous), an infection, a previous surgery, or an injury.
- You are well enough for surgery and do not have a serious medical condition that makes surgery too risky.
- You do not have an active infection at the site where the surgery would be done.
