Recruiting studies
- NCT07696702Recruiting
Comparing pulp capping for deep cavities in adult back teeth
This study tests two ways to treat deep cavities that reach the nerve of the tooth, to see which helps the nerve heal better. It may be an option if you have a deep cavity in a lower molar and the nerve is still healthy.
Rohtak, HaryanaAges 18–40 - NCT06293521RecruitingPhase 2
Nerve treatment options for deep cavities in baby teeth
This study compares two ways to treat severe cavities in baby teeth: removing only the infected part of the nerve (pulpotomy) versus removing all the nerve tissue (pulpectomy). It looks at which method helps the tooth heal better and stay healthy longer.
CairoAges 4–6 - NCT07242742Recruiting
Pulpotomy vs. root canal for deep cavities
This trial compares two treatments for very deep cavities that reach the tooth's nerve. It tests whether a less invasive partial nerve removal (pulpotomy) works as well as a full root canal. It may help you keep your tooth without needing a full root canal.
SingaporeAges 12 years+ - NCT07041905Recruiting
Comparing two ways to treat deep cavities in back teeth
This study compares two ways of removing deep tooth decay to see which keeps the tooth nerve healthy and causes less pain afterward. It's for people who have two deep cavities on opposite sides of their mouth and want to help find the best treatment.
AdanaAges 15–55 - NCT06944028Enrolling by invitation
Stepwise cavity treatment for deep decay in young teeth
This trial tests a gentler way to remove deep cavities in young permanent molars or premolars, aiming to save more of the tooth and protect the nerve. It may be an option for children and teens with deep decay that hasn't reached the pulp.
StockholmAges 8–19 - NCT07136155Enrolling by invitation
Two ways to treat deep cavities in baby teeth
This study compares two ways to treat deep cavities in baby (primary) molars. One method places a special soothing medicine under a filling; the other uses a metal crown that covers the whole tooth. Both aim to keep the tooth healthy without needing a nerve treatment or extraction.
IrbidAges 4–9 - NCT07578662Recruiting
Direct Pulp Capping for Deep Cavities in Back Teeth
This study tests a treatment where dentists cap (seal) an exposed tooth nerve in deep cavities of back teeth to see if it heals properly. This might help save your tooth instead of needing a root canal.
Rohtak, HaryanaAges 15–40 - NCT07748676Recruiting
Comparing two rinsing solutions for deep cavities with tooth pain
This study tests whether rinsing the inside of a painful tooth with a special solution (calcium hypochlorite or sodium hypochlorite) after removing the damaged nerve tissue helps preserve the tooth and reduce pain. It's for people with a deep cavity causing severe toothache, and may help avoid a root canal or tooth loss.
Rohtak, HaryanaAges 18–40 - NCT06683833RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing materials for protecting tooth nerves in deep cavities
This study compares three materials used to protect the nerve inside a deep cavity. If you have a deep cavity in a live tooth, you may be able to join and help find which material works best.
CairoAges 22–45 - NCT05816525Recruiting
Study tooth symptoms and cavity depth after partial removal
This study looks at how tooth symptoms and the depth of a cavity affect outcomes when dentists remove only part of the decayed tissue. You might benefit by getting care guided by careful tooth testing and dental imaging, while contributing to better treatment decisions for deep cavities.
EspooAges 18–50 - NCT06918639Recruiting
Pulpotomy for painful adult teeth with deep cavities
This study tests a treatment called pulpotomy for adults with a deep cavity in a tooth that is causing pain. If you have a tooth that hurts but is still healthy enough to save, this treatment might help relieve the pain and keep the tooth.
Alcorcón, MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT07123025Recruiting
Partial pulp treatment for painful tooth decay
This study tests if removing only the top part of the damaged tooth nerve can save a deeply decayed molar. It is for people with moderate to severe toothache that doesn't stop, especially when lying down.
Rohtak, HaryanaAges 15–40 - NCT06645860Recruiting
Smart treatment for painless cavities in baby teeth
This study tests a special treatment (SMART) for cavities in baby teeth that don’t hurt. It uses different materials to fix the holes, and may help avoid more complex procedures.
Çanakkale, KepezAges 4–9 - NCT06433297Recruiting
Direct vs. indirect pulp capping for deep cavities in lower molars
This study compares two ways to treat deep cavities in lower back teeth when the nerve is exposed. The goal is to see which method better protects the nerve and avoids the need for a root canal.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for deep caries?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 14 recruiting deep caries studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a deep caries trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a deep caries trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
