Comparing three filling materials for baby teeth with exposed nerves
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares three different materials used to seal and protect baby teeth when the nerve is exposed due to deep cavities. The goal is to see which material works best at keeping the tooth healthy and avoiding the need for root canal treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Child must be between 6 and 10 years old
- Affected tooth must be a back tooth (molar or premolar) with a cavity that has reached the nerve, causing bleeding
- Tooth must still be alive (vital) and show response to cold or touch tests
- Tooth must not have a large dark area (radiolucency) at the tip or where roots meet
- Tooth must be able to be restored (filled) after treatment
- Parent or guardian must give written permission for the child to participate

This study compares two treatments for a deeply infected baby molar tooth in children ages 4–9. One treatment removes only the top part of the nerve (pulpotomy) with a special material, while the other removes the entire nerve (pulpectomy). The goal is to see which works better to save the tooth and prevent pain.
This trial compares two treatments for baby molars with severe nerve pain (irreversible pulpitis). One option removes only the infected nerve tissue in the crown, while the other removes all the nerve tissue. Both use special materials to seal the tooth.
This study compares two materials (MTA and Biodentine) used to treat a painful, infected nerve in a back tooth. Instead of a full root canal, the dentist will remove only the top part of the nerve and seal it. The goal is to see which material works better to save your tooth.
This study compares two materials (NeoMTA and NeoPUTTY) used to treat deep cavities in baby molars that are close to the nerve. It aims to see which works better to keep the tooth healthy and avoid pain or infection.
This trial compares two materials used in a procedure to save baby molars with deep cavities. The treatment keeps the nerve alive so the tooth can fall out naturally when the time comes.
This study tests a new filling material for treating baby molars with deep cavities, to see if it helps keep the nerve healthy and avoid root canals or early tooth loss. Eligible children receive a nerve treatment (pulpotomy) and are monitored with x-rays and check-ups.
