3D-printed fillings for back teeth needing repairs
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests how long different types of dental fillings made with 3D printing last in back teeth (premolars and molars). It may help you by comparing filling types in a careful, structured way.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have cavities, a crack, or a cosmetic need in back teeth (premolars or first/second molars).
- You need permanent (adult) teeth restorations—not baby teeth.
- You must have at least two fillings in the same group of back teeth (either premolars or molars) on one side or within that group.
- The study needs the same number of fillings using each technique you’re assigned.
- You should NOT have exposed tooth nerve (pulp), or a situation where nerve exposure is likely when removing decay.

This trial compares two modern ways to make partial dental restorations (like crowns or bridges): one using a 3D printer and the other using a computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD-CAM) system. It aims to see which method works better for people who need a couple of teeth fixed.
This study compares two types of tooth-colored fillings (inlays) for large cavities in back teeth. One is made from a hard ceramic-like material made by a computer, and the other is a composite resin filling placed by hand. The goal is to see which one lasts better and works best for repairing big cavities.
This study compares two types of tooth-colored filling materials used to repair cavities in back teeth. The goal is to see which material works better and lasts longer, helping you keep your natural teeth healthy.
This study compares two types of tooth-colored filling materials for back teeth. It aims to see which one lasts longer and works better.
This trial tests a new type of self-hardening tooth-colored filling material that may help repair and protect deep cavities in back teeth. It is looking for people with two molars that need deep fillings, to see if the material stays strong and helpful over time.
This study compares two ways of filling cavities in the back teeth: a new 3D-printed filling versus a traditional one. It aims to see which lasts longer and works better.
