Gum-friendly fillings for upper premolar teeth
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares different materials used to build up a tooth's base before placing a filling, to see which one is gentler on the gums. It may help protect your gum health during dental treatment.

This study tests a new type of tooth-colored filling for cavities at the gum line. It compares two ways of preparing the tooth to see which gives a stronger, longer-lasting filling, which may help you keep your natural tooth healthy.
This trial tests a new tooth-colored filling material for deep cavities that can be placed without removing healthy tooth structure. It may help preserve more of your natural tooth and reduce sensitivity.
This study is testing a special flowable filling material for deep cavities that extend below the gum line in back teeth. The goal is to see if this material reduces the chance of cavities coming back compared to standard treatment.
This trial tests how the depth of a filling below the gumline affects the health of the tooth's nerve and surrounding gum tissue. It may help people with cavities that go below the gum to get better care.
This study compares two types of tooth-colored filling materials used to repair cavities that form at the gum line on front teeth and premolars (the teeth just behind the canines). Both materials are designed to be easy for dentists to place and may help keep the area healthy. If you have a small to moderate cavity in this area, this trial could help determine which material works better over 18 months.
This study compares two types of tooth-colored filling materials for cavities on the chewing surface of back teeth. Both materials are 'flowable' (easy-flowing) and are designed to stick well, so you might get a more comfortable and longer-lasting filling.
