Comparing Fit of All-Metal Crowns on Artificial Molars
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This lab study is testing how well all-metal crowns fit on artificial upper back molars when made using the traditional lost-wax technique. It compares the crown's edge fit and internal adaptation to see which method works best.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are working with phantom teeth (artificial teeth used for training or research).
- The teeth are upper back molars (maxillary molars).
- You are making all-metal crowns using the conventional lost-wax technique.
- Crowns should not be over-prepared or under-prepared.
- No defective metal crowns or damaged silicone films are allowed.
- Any dental stone casts used must be without defects.
Quick eligibility check
Answer a few plain-language questions, based on this study's own requirements, to get a preliminary sense of fit.

This study compares two types of tooth-colored ceramic crowns for back teeth that have had root canal treatment. The goal is to see which material works better and lasts longer, helping you keep your natural tooth strong.
This study tests whether the way a special dental cement is hardened (using light or a chemical set) affects how well full-coverage metal-and-porcelain crowns stay attached. If you're getting a crown, this trial compares two curing methods to see which gives a stronger, longer-lasting bond.
This study compares two methods for fitting stainless steel crowns on children's back teeth (molars) that have deep cavities. It aims to see which method works better and causes less discomfort.
This study compares two types of dental cement used to attach ceramic crowns to back teeth that have had root canal treatment. The goal is to see which cement works better and lasts longer.
This study compares two different ways of making partial dental restorations (fillings or onlays) for teeth that have lost a cusp. They will look at how well each type holds up and how smooth the surface stays, using a split-mouth design where you receive both types on different teeth.
This study tests a new type of crown made from resin and ceramic for molars or premolars. If you need a back-tooth crown and your mouth health is in good shape, you may be asked to receive and have it evaluated over time.
