This study compares two types of tooth-colored filling materials used to repair cavities that form at the gum line on front teeth and premolars (the teeth just behind the canines). Both materials are designed to be easy for dentists to place and may help keep the area healthy. If you have a small to moderate cavity in this area, this trial could help determine which material works better over 18 months.
