Healing of root hole repair using different materials
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests how well different materials help heal a small hole (perforation) in the root of a lower molar tooth. It may help if you have this type of tooth injury and are generally healthy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a small to medium sized hole in the root of a lower back tooth.
- You are between 15 and 50 years old.
- You are generally healthy and have no major medical problems.
- You do not have advanced gum disease (periodontitis).
- The tooth with the hole can still be repaired and kept.
- You are not allergic to any medications used in the treatment.

This study compares two materials used to treat deep cavities in permanent molars without causing pain. The goal is to see which material better protects the tooth's nerve and helps the tooth heal, potentially avoiding the need for a root canal.
This study compares three materials used to protect the nerve inside a deep cavity. If you have a deep cavity in a live tooth, you may be able to join and help find which material works best.
This trial tests a new type of self-hardening tooth-colored filling material that may help repair and protect deep cavities in back teeth. It is looking for people with two molars that need deep fillings, to see if the material stays strong and helpful over time.
This study tests two materials used to treat decayed baby molars by removing the nerve and filling the tooth. It aims to see which material works better to keep the tooth healthy and pain-free.
This trial tests a regenerative treatment for immature permanent teeth (front teeth with developing roots) in children and teens. The goal is to help the tooth's pulp heal and allow the root to continue growing naturally.
This study compares two types of putty used to treat the nerve of a deep cavity in a baby tooth, and then looks at two types of crowns (caps) placed on top. It's for healthy children ages 5–7 who need this treatment on a back baby tooth.
