Jaw surgery tool tested for cleaner breaks

NCT ID NCT07104656

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study looks at whether using a special saw during a common jaw surgery (called sagittal ramus osteotomy) helps the bone break in a cleaner, more predictable way. About 40 adults having jaw surgery will be checked with CT scans to see the fracture pattern. The goal is simply to learn which tool works better — there is no direct treatment benefit for participants.
