3D-Printed guides make extra tooth removal faster and gentler for kids
NCT ID NCT07416851
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether using computer-assisted 3D-printed guides helps dentists remove extra (supernumerary) teeth in healthy children more quickly and with less cutting than traditional freehand surgery. Thirty-two children took part, and the main goal was to measure how long it took to reach the hidden tooth. The approach aims to make surgery less invasive and reduce recovery time.
