Jaw reconstruction study: are immediate dental implants as accurate in delayed cases?
NCT ID NCT07452315
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This trial looks at how accurately surgeons can rebuild the lower jaw using a bone flap from the leg, combined with custom plates and immediate dental implants. It compares fresh cases (right after removing diseased tissue) with delayed cases (where the defect already exists). Twenty-two adults will have CT scans before and after surgery to check how well the reconstruction matches the virtual plan.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- fibula free flap with patient-specific plates and immediate dental implants
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that immediate dental implants during jaw reconstruction are as accurate in delayed cases as in fresh ones, improving surgical planning.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, non-randomized trial with only 22 participants, so results may not apply widely. Accuracy measurements may not translate to better long-term outcomes.
