Testing a dental eye scan during orthodontic treatment
This study checks whether an optical coherence tomography scan—a quick, non-invasive imaging test—can help in dentistry for people who need orthodontic (braces/alignment) treatment. If you join, you’ll likely be scanned as part of the study and your dentist/doctor will compare results to see how useful the scan is.

Clear aligner comfort study for mild to moderate crowding
This study tests two types of clear aligners to see which one feels more comfortable and works better for patients with mild to moderate crowding. It may help decide which aligner material is better for future patients.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 15–30 - NCT07773389Recruiting
Early vs late premolar removal for braces

IslamabadAges 13–25 - NCT07726290Recruiting
Testing AI to predict gender from jawbone scans
This trial uses 3D jaw scans to see if an AI can accurately predict a person's gender. It might help if you have a clear scan of your jaw.
CairoAges 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+ - NCT07552051Recruiting
Testing Bite Mark Analysis Using 3D Dental Scans
This study tests how accurately dentists can analyze bite marks using digital 3D models of teeth. Researchers will scan your upper teeth and use computer software to see if the same bite-mark patterns are found consistently—helping improve how bite marks are used in dental and legal cases.
Nantes, NantesAges 18 years+ - NCT06741696Recruiting
Saline rinsing after wisdom tooth removal
This trial tests whether using saline (salt water) at different temperatures after wisdom tooth surgery helps with healing and pain. It could help you recover more comfortably.

Blood-derived treatment for chronic jaw pain
This trial tests whether a treatment made from your own blood (platelet-rich plasma exosomes) can help relieve long-term jaw joint pain and improve function. If you qualify, you would receive injections directly into your jaw area.
WroclawAges 18 years+ - NCT07491809Recruiting
Aesthetic dental veneers study with adhesive cementation
This trial tests different materials and methods for cementing veneers. It may help if you have healthy gums and need at least 4 veneers.
RigaAges Any age - NCT06798090Recruiting
Comparing 3D-printed vs. traditional dental space maintainers
This trial tests two ways of making a small dental device that holds space for adult teeth when baby molars are lost early. It compares a 3D-printed version with a conventionally made one, to see which works better and is more comfortable.
Aydin, AydınAges 5–8 - NCT07449884Recruiting
AI avatar vs. tell-show-do for children's dental anxiety
This trial compares using an AI avatar video with the traditional tell-show-do method to help children aged 5 to 7 feel less anxious and cooperate better during a numbing injection at the dentist. It may benefit children who have never had dental anesthesia before and are generally healthy.
BeirutAges 5–7 - NCT06806202RecruitingPhase 2
Warm vs. standard numbing medicine for tooth injections
This trial tests if warming the numbing medicine before injecting it into the jaw makes the numbing work better for people with a painful tooth infection. If you have a bad toothache in a lower molar and need a dental procedure, this study might help make the numbing more effective.
Rawalpindi, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–50 - NCT07409896Recruiting
Comparing two numbing shots for painful lower first molars
This study compares two numbing methods for severe tooth pain (pulpitis) in a lower first molar. If you have a tooth that needs a root canal and the pain lingers after cold, this trial may help determine which anesthetic works better for you.
Rawalpindi, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–55 - NCT07415915Enrolling by invitation
Heart rate biofeedback for stress in dentistry students
This trial tests if a technique called heart rate variability biofeedback (HRVB) can help reduce stress and anxiety in students moving from classroom to clinical training. It may be a good fit if you are a 4th-year dentistry student starting clinical work.
Almada, Setúbal DistrictAges 18 years+ - NCT07388368Recruiting
