3D-printed plates for jaw realignment surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two types of custom-made plates used to fix the chin bone during jaw realignment surgery. It aims to see which plate fits better and works more accurately.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are willing and able to participate in the study.
- You do not have uncontrolled diabetes or other serious health conditions that could affect healing or anesthesia.
- You do not have any infections or lesions in the jawbone that could interfere with healing.

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.
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 compares two ways of placing custom plates during jaw surgery to fix the upper jaw. One method uses a smaller incision and plates on one spot, while the other uses larger incisions and plates on two spots. The goal is to see which gives more accurate results, which may improve outcomes.
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 types of metal plates used to fix a broken jaw near the joint. The goal is to see if a custom 3D-printed plate works better than the standard plate for helping the bone heal correctly.
This study uses computer models to compare two ways of fixing the jaw after surgery: custom-made implants versus standard mini plates. It may help improve future jaw surgery outcomes.
