3D printed vs milled plates for chin surgery
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of custom-made titanium plates used during chin surgery (genioplasty) as part of jaw realignment. It aims to see which plate type is more accurate for patients with jaw and face misalignment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a jaw or face misalignment that needs surgery on both upper and lower jaws.
- You do not have active jaw joint pain or problems (like TMD).
- You are motivated to participate in the study.
- You do not have a systemic illness (like uncontrolled diabetes) that could affect healing or surgery safety.
- You do not have bone cysts or infections in your jaw.

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 less invasive way to attach custom plates during jaw surgery. It compares fixing the upper jaw with plates on the nasal area only versus plates on both the nasal and cheek areas. The goal is to see which method works better while being gentler on the patient.
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 compares two ways to fix a broken jaw (mandibular angle fracture) using metal plates and screws. One method uses a custom 3D-printed guide to help place the screws, while the other is the standard approach. It aims to see which is more accurate and may lead to a better recovery.
This study compares a custom 3D-printed plate to standard titanium plates for fixing a broken jaw near the joint. It may help if you have a displaced subcondylar fracture that needs 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.
