First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 12, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study will compare custom 3D printed splints made at the hospital with those made by outside companies for jaw surgery. The splints help surgeons align the teeth and jaws correctly during the operation. Researchers want to see if the in-house splints are faster to get, cheaper, and just as satisfying for surgeons. About 70 patients of any age needing jaw surgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital will take part.
