Tooth-colored onlays for cavities below the gum line
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a tooth-colored filling (onlay) for back teeth with cavities that go below the gum line. It is designed for people whose tooth is weakened but still healthy enough to avoid more serious treatments like root canals.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a back tooth (molar) with a cavity that is below the gum line and has weakened part of the tooth.
- The tooth with the cavity must have more than 2 millimeters of healthy bone above the gum pocket.
- Your teeth should be normally aligned with the teeth next to and opposite them.
- You must be willing to come back for check-ups over 2 years.
- You should not have a dead or infected tooth nerve, severe gum disease, or habits like teeth grinding.
- You cannot be pregnant or have a general health condition (like a chronic disease).

This trial compares two digital manufacturing methods to make ceramic onlay fillings for back (molar) teeth—one method that removes material and one that builds it up. It may help you learn which approach makes more comfortable, effective onlays for teeth needing repair.
This study compares two types of tooth-colored onlays (one made of layered resin and one of a ceramic-like material) for fixing cavities in back molars. If you need an onlay, this trial could help your dentist choose the best option for you.
This study tests a new self-hardening filling material against a light-activated bioactive filling for cavities between back teeth. The goal is to see which material works better and lasts longer.
