NCT ID NCT05925465
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether numbing the upper and lower jaw nerves before surgery can lower pain and the need for extra pain medicine after jaw surgery. About 60 adults having planned jaw surgery will take part. The goal is to see if this nerve block helps control pain better than standard care alone.
