Comparing different types of resin fillings for root‑canal‑treated molars
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two types of resin onlays (custom‑made fillings) to see which works better for molars that have had a root canal. If you have a back tooth with a root canal and a cavity on the top and one side, this trial may help decide the best repair.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your tooth must have had a root canal.
- The cavity must be above the gum line, on the top of the tooth and only one side.
- The top part of the tooth must have a defect that covers more than one‑third of the distance from the groove to the tip, and at least one cusp is involved.
- The tooth must have an opposing tooth or a fixed bridge or crown to bite against.
- The tooth must have neighboring teeth (no gaps on either side).
- You must not grind your teeth, have a jaw joint disorder, or be allergic to dental resin materials.

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.
This trial tests a special printed material used for tooth overlays (caps that cover the entire top of a back tooth). If you need a full overlay on a molar that has had root canal treatment, this study may be a good fit.
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 tooth-colored fillings (inlays) for large cavities in back teeth. One is made from a hard ceramic-like material made by a computer, and the other is a composite resin filling placed by hand. The goal is to see which one lasts better and works best for repairing big cavities.
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 modern ways to make partial fillings (onlays/overlays) for back teeth: one using 3D printing and the other using CAD/CAM milling. Both aim to preserve healthy tooth structure and provide a durable, natural-looking restoration.
