Summary

This study tests a computer model that simulates how a person's face will look after orthognathic (jaw) surgery. Researchers will compare the simulation to actual 3D scans taken 6 months after surgery in 30 patients. The goal is to give patients a reliable preview of their post-surgery appearance.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to: If successful, this could give patients a realistic preview of their face after jaw surgery, reducing anxiety and improving satisfaction.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The simulation might not perfectly match real outcomes.
