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 looks back at patient records to see how long single-tooth crowns and partial crowns made of precious metal or non-precious metal last. It aims to find out which type of metal may hold up better over time.
This study tests two different ways of using a special cement to attach porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns. It aims to see which curing method works best to keep your new crown strong and secure.
This study compares crowns designed by artificial intelligence (AI) with crowns made using traditional computer software. If you need a crown on a lower back molar, this trial may help find which method creates a better fit.
This trial tests two types of dental cement (a bioactive kind and a conventional self-adhesive kind) for placing crowns or large fillings on back molars that have had root canals. The goal is to see which cement works better to keep the restoration secure and the tooth healthy.
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.
This study compares two ways to restore (cap) back teeth that have had root-canal treatment and lost a cusp or more. Researchers want to see which method—computer-milled or 3D-printed crowns—works better and lasts longer.
