3D-Printed shield could prevent mouth injuries during cleft surgery
NCT ID NCT04422847
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a custom 3D-printed silicone tray that covers the cleft during intubation (placing a breathing tube) in children with cleft lip and palate. The goal is to reduce injuries like bleeding or swelling and make the procedure safer. About 120 children will take part, and researchers will compare how well the tray protects the mouth and improves the doctor's view during intubation.
