Recruiting studies
- NCT06453005Recruiting
Comparison of two tooth cap methods for baby molars
This trial compares two ways to fix cavities in baby molars: the SMART Hall technique (a newer, less invasive method) and the traditional stainless steel crown. The goal is to see which works better for children aged 3 to 9.
Tirupati, AndhrapradeshAges 3–9 - 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 - NCT06713330Recruiting
Stainless steel vs. resin crowns for baby molars
This study compares two types of dental crowns (stainless steel vs. resin) for baby molars to see which works better. If your child needs full mouth dental work under general anesthesia, they may be able to join.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 2–5 - NCT07330570Recruiting
Caries risk after dental surgery under general anesthesia
This study looks at how likely children are to get new cavities after they have had dental treatment under general anesthesia for early childhood cavities. It aims to help dentists better understand and prevent future decay.
Aydin, AydınAges 6–16 - NCT07703176Recruiting
Testing a new tooth filling in children's first molars
This study compares how well a newer filling material (Cention-N) works in children's permanent back teeth that have cavities. It's for healthy children ages 8 to 10 who have cavities in both lower or both upper first molars.
Minya, Asyut GovernorateAges 8–10 - NCT05860712Recruiting
Cinnamon vs chlorine rinse after baby tooth nerve treatment
This trial tests whether a cinnamon extract rinse works as well as a chlorine-based rinse to reduce pain and fight infection after pulpectomy (removing the nerve tissue) in baby teeth. It may help you understand which rinse causes less post-treatment discomfort.
CairoAges 4–8 - NCT06597669Recruiting
Comparing two treatments for cavities in baby molars
This clinical trial compares two methods for fixing cavities in baby molars: a traditional metal crown and a simpler technique that seals the crown over the cavity without removing much tooth. It aims to find which method works better in children.
Huế, Thừa Thiên Huế ProvinceAges 3–9 - NCT06685640Recruiting
Comparing metal and ceramic crowns for back baby teeth
This trial tests whether stainless steel or zirconia crowns work better for fixing cavities in children's back baby teeth after nerve treatment. It can help parents choose the best option for their child.
Aydin, AydınAges 4–5 - NCT06699199RecruitingPhase 4
Testing silver diamine fluoride on mouth bacteria in kids
This study tests if a liquid medicine (silver diamine fluoride) painted on baby teeth cavities can change the bacteria in a child's mouth. It is for healthy children ages 4–10 with an open cavity.
Jeddah, Mecca RegionAges 4–12 - NCT06730360Recruiting
Light therapy for pulp treatment in young children's molars
This study tests whether a special light treatment (photobiomodulation) can help heal the nerve inside a child's first permanent molar when the tooth has deep decay and a painful nerve condition (irreversible pulpitis). The goal is to see if this approach can save the tooth and avoid more invasive treatments.
Al Mansurah, Dakahlia GovernorateAges 6–9 - NCT06801561Recruiting
Sealants and Laser to Prevent Cavities in MIH-Affected Molars
This trial tests whether a dental sealant or a special laser treatment can prevent cavities and breakdown in first permanent molars affected by MIH (a condition that makes enamel weak). Eligible children have a molar with MIH that hasn't yet broken down and has only minor cavities.
AlexandriaAges 6–9 - NCT07324928Enrolling by invitation
Pulpotomy treatment for baby teeth using iron sulfate or MTA
This study compares two materials (iron sulfate and a special cement called MTA) used during a pulpotomy—a procedure to treat cavities in baby molars when the nerve is exposed. It aims to find which material works better to keep the tooth healthy until it falls out naturally.
Jizan, Jazan RegionAges 6–10 - NCT07377240Recruiting
Understanding barriers to changing eating habits in families with severe tooth decay in young children
This study talks to parents of young children (under 6) with severe early childhood cavities to understand what makes it hard to change risky eating habits. The goal is to help dentists support families better.
Clermont-FerrandAges Any age - NCT06957509Recruiting
Saliva test to predict cavities in 3-year-olds
This study looks at proteins in the spit of 3-year-old children to see if they can help doctors better predict which kids might get cavities. The goal is to improve how we assess cavity risk at a young age.
StockholmAges 3–3 - NCT05821140Recruiting
Assessing jaw and bite function in children with oral health issues
This study looks at how a child’s mouth, jaw, and biting function work in different dental and oral health situations. It may help clinicians better understand what support or treatments children need.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for dental caries in children?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 39 recruiting dental caries in children 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 dental caries in children 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 dental caries in children 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.
