Sealing molars with enamel spots: rinsing vs blotting
This study tests whether rinsing off or blotting dry a special silver fluoride liquid before placing a tooth sealant helps the sealant last longer on molars affected by a common condition called molar-incisor hypomineralization. The goal is to find the best way to protect these teeth from cavities.
AnkaraAges 6–14 - NCT07714265Recruiting
Gum thickening around dental implants: comparing three methods

CairoAges 20 years+ - NCT07706647Recruiting
Oil pulling for gum health trial
This study tests if oil pulling (swishing oil in your mouth) can reduce gum inflammation and bleeding. It compares oil pulling to a standard mouthwash to see which is better for gum health.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–70 - NCT07709286RecruitingPhase 1
New tooth stain treatment compared to standard acid microabrasion
This study tests a new product called Antivet to see if it removes tooth stains better than regular acid treatments. It may help people with mild to moderate tooth discoloration.
Badr, Cairo GovernorateAges 16–50 - NCT06642415Recruiting
High magnification microscope for tooth root surgery
This trial compares two ways of doing a special tooth surgery (endodontic microsurgery) to see if using a high-magnification microscope helps you feel better after the procedure. If you have a tooth that still hurts or stays infected after a previous root canal, this study might be for you.
Rohtak, HaryanaAges 18–55 - NCT05584566Recruiting
Bone growth treatment before dental implants: two materials compared
This study compares two bone-building products used to repair a missing “bone wall” in the jaw so dental implants can be placed. You may be able to help find which material works better for guided bone regeneration and implant readiness.
JerusalemAges 18 years+ - NCT07698158Recruiting
Growing Well Study: healthy growth study for young children
This study looks at how children aged 6 months to 4 years grow and develop. It involves families in Leeds, Doncaster, or East London. Researchers want to understand what supports healthy growth in early childhood.
Doncaster, West YorkshireAges 6 months–4 years - 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 - NCT06653868Recruiting
Sticky bone grafts for front tooth implants
This trial tests two different types of sticky bone graft materials placed around a dental implant right after a tooth is removed. It aims to see which type helps the bone heal better around the implant in the front of your mouth.
CairoAges 20–50 - 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 - NCT07694934Recruiting
Operation Calm virtual reality study for children and teens
This study tests a virtual reality (VR) tool called Operation Calm to help children and teens feel calmer during medical, dental, or other procedures. Parents and healthcare workers also try it and share their thoughts.
MontrealAges 6 years+ - NCT07688421Enrolling by invitation
Short 3D-printed implants for back jaw teeth: 3-year study
This trial tests shorter implants made with 3D-printing for replacing missing teeth in the back of the mouth. Researchers will check how well they work over 3 years using X-rays.
Guarulhos, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT07688278Recruiting
Diabetes screening for people with advanced gum disease

SkåneAges 18 years+ - NCT07676318Recruiting
Using AI to write dental X-ray reports
This trial tests whether a large language model (a type of AI) can create clear and accurate radiology reports from structured dental X-ray data. It may help speed up report writing and improve consistency for patients with permanent (adult) teeth.
Kielce, Świętokrzyskie VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT07672873Recruiting
Steroid injection for tooth nerve pain during root canal
This trial tests whether a single injection of dexamethasone (a steroid) near the nerve of a painful lower molar can improve pain relief during a root canal. It's for people with severe tooth nerve pain who haven't taken pain meds recently.
IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT07665528Recruiting
Botox vs Botox with surgery for chronic anal fissure

Islamabad, FederalAges 18–65 - NCT07671651Recruiting
Ozone therapy for early tooth decay in children
This trial tests whether ozone therapy can help reverse the earliest stages of tooth decay (white spots on teeth) in children. Children aged 6–12 with small, non-cavity spots may benefit from this treatment instead of traditional fillings.
Istanbul, MaltepeAges 6–14 - NCT07660146Recruiting
