Comparing two fillings for cavities in baby molars
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests two gentle ways to treat cavities in baby teeth: the Hall Technique (placing a metal cap without drilling) and Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (removing decay with hand tools). Both aim to keep your child's teeth healthy and pain-free.
