Gentle cavity treatments for baby molars in children
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two gentle ways to treat cavities in baby molars. It's for healthy, cooperative children aged 4 to 6 whose cavities are not too deep and whose tooth nerves are still healthy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 4 and 6 years old.
- The cavities must be in the back baby teeth (molars) and only in the enamel or dentin layer, with a healthy nerve inside.
- Your child should be generally healthy, without any serious medical conditions.
- Your child must be able to sit still and cooperate during the dental visit.

This study compares two treatments for saving a decayed baby back tooth: a newer material called Neo Putty MTA and a standard medicine called formocresol. Both are used during a procedure (pulpotomy) that removes the infected part of the tooth nerve to keep the tooth healthy until it falls out naturally.
