Testing a new light-based scanner for dental crowns
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a new handheld scanner that uses light to create a 3D picture of your teeth. It may help dentists make crowns more accurately without messy impressions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older
- You have at least 18 natural teeth including molars, premolars, and front teeth
- Your teeth are generally healthy (small cavities or fillings that don't cover the whole tooth are okay)
- You are willing to have a small cord placed under your gum for 2 minutes
- You need a dental crown on one tooth (as part of your treatment plan)

This study checks whether an optical coherence tomography scan—a quick, non-invasive imaging test—can help in dentistry for people who need orthodontic (braces/alignment) treatment. If you join, you’ll likely be scanned as part of the study and your dentist/doctor will compare results to see how useful the scan is.
This trial tests a new, non-invasive way to measure gum changes after a cosmetic gum reshaping (crown lengthening). It compares a 3D scanning technique to the current best method, to see which gives more accurate results.
This trial tests two different ways of taking digital scans of the mouth to make a full set of teeth supported by four implants in the lower jaw. It compares a standard scanning method with a new pattern-assisted technique to see which is more accurate.
This study tests whether special 3D imaging and intraoral scanning tools can help dentists better identify tooth decay and plaque buildup. Researchers want to see if these new methods work well and could improve how cavities are diagnosed.
This trial tests a new 3D-printed camera attachment that helps take consistent, high-quality dental photos. If you are a healthy adult between 18 and 40 with natural front teeth and no facial scars or past mouth surgery, you may be able to join.
This study tests a new 3D scanning technique to measure gum changes after crown lengthening surgery. It aims to see if the new method is as accurate as the current standard approach.
