Bioceramic Putty vs MTA and Crowns for Baby Teeth
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Child must be between 5 and 7 years old
- Child must be in good general health
- Child must be cooperative for dental work
- The tooth must be a deep cavity in a back baby tooth that is still healthy (nerve alive, no pain on its own)
- The tooth must need a full crown (cap) after treatment

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 study compares two treatments for baby molar teeth that have deep decay but are still healthy otherwise: a newer material called Neo-putty (a type of bioceramic material) versus a standard medicine called formocresol. The goal is to see which one works better to keep the tooth healthy and prevent further problems.
This study compares two types of crowns for baby molars that have had a pulpotomy (a procedure to remove infected pulp). The goal is to see which crown preserves the natural bite and space better.
This study tests a new tooth-colored filling material that may help fight bacteria after a common treatment for deep cavities in baby molars. It aims to see if the material works well and keeps the tooth healthy.
This study compares two types of crowns for baby molars that have had nerve treatment. One type is made with a 3D printer, and the other is the standard stainless steel crown. The goal is to see which crown works better for children's teeth.
This study compares two materials used to treat deep decay in baby molars by preserving the nerve inside the tooth. The goal is to see which material works better and helps the tooth heal without pain or infection.
