NCT ID NCT07385924
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested how accurate 3D-printed surgical guides are for repairing broken jawbones. Twenty-four patients with a single-side jaw fracture received surgery using guides made from two different virtual planning methods. The goal was to see how well the guides helped surgeons realign the bone, measured by comparing pre- and post-surgery CT scans.
