Comparing two materials for treating deep cavities
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests two materials used to protect the nerve in deep cavities, comparing a newer calcium-based material to a standard one. It may help patients with a reversible, mild toothache that stops quickly.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 14 and 35 years old
- You have a deep cavity in a fully developed tooth that exposes the nerve
- You have mild tooth pain that goes away within seconds when the cause is removed
- Your tooth responds normally to hot, cold, or electrical tests
- Your X-ray shows no infection or damage at the root tip
- You are healthy overall (classified as ASA 1 or 2)

This trial tests two materials used to cap the nerve of a deep cavity in a molar tooth: one made from your own blood (platelet rich fibrin) and a standard material (mineral trioxide aggregate). The goal is to see which one helps the tooth heal better over a year.
This trial tests two ways to treat deep cavities that have caused toothache but not yet killed the nerve: direct pulp capping or partial removal of the nerve tissue. It aims to see which method better saves the tooth.
This study tests two ways to treat deep cavities that reach the nerve of the tooth, to see which helps the nerve heal better. It may be an option if you have a deep cavity in a lower molar and the nerve is still healthy.
This trial compares a new bioactive filling material to a standard one for treating deep cavities. It aims to see which material helps the tooth form a natural protective layer over the nerve better over 2 years.
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 two different materials used to treat deep cavities in permanent back teeth. Doctors will see which one causes less pain after the procedure. Participants have a deep cavity but healthy teeth and gums.
