Study of a new tooth crown made of high-performance polymer
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a new type of dental crown made of a strong plastic called PEEK for a back molar that has had a root canal. It looks at how well the crown fits, and may be a good option if your tooth is still mostly intact.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 50 years old and can read and sign a consent form.
- You have a molar tooth that has had a root canal and does not have active gum disease or infection at the root tip.

This study compares two ways to make a strong cap (overlay) for back teeth that had root canals and are badly damaged. It tests a 3D-printed ceramic filling against one made by a computer and milling machine, and follows up for 18 months to see which works better.
This study compares two ways of preparing a back tooth (molar) for an overlay filling after a root canal. It aims to find which method works best for restoring strength and function to the tooth. If you need an overlay on a treated molar, this trial could help improve your dental care.
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 ways of making a special type of crown (called an endocrown) for back teeth that have had root canals. One method uses 3D printing, the other uses milling from a solid block. The goal is to see which crown fits better and lasts longer over 18 months.
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 trial compares two methods of placing a post inside a root canal-treated front tooth before placing a crown. It aims to find the best way to restore strength and appearance while preserving the remaining healthy tooth.
