Custom jaw stretcher offers new hope for severe cleft repair

NCT ID NCT07306429

Summary

This study tested a custom-made dental device designed to gradually stretch jawbone tissue to close wide gaps in patients with alveolar clefts. Eight participants aged 7-20 with wide clefts used the device, which was created specifically for each person using 3D models. Researchers measured how well the device reduced the bone gap, maintained tooth stability, and kept the moved bone segment healthy.
