Comparing two treatments for painful molars
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two materials used to treat an inflamed tooth nerve in adults. It aims to see which one is better at preserving the tooth and relieving pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a generally healthy adult between 18 and 40 years old.
- You have pain in one of your back teeth (molars) that comes on its own and lingers after cold, suggesting the nerve is damaged but still alive.
- The tooth is not painful when you tap on it, and there is no swelling or abscess.
- The tooth has a deep cavity that reaches close to the nerve, but the nerve is not completely dead.
- You can have the dentist stop bleeding inside the tooth within 5 minutes during the procedure.

This study compares two ways to treat severe tooth pain (irreversible pulpitis) in back molars: a partial root canal procedure called a pulpotomy versus a traditional full root canal. The goal is to see which treatment works better and helps you keep your tooth.
This study compares two ways to treat severe pain in baby molars (primary molars) in children. It tests a newer material (Neoputty MTA) against a standard one (Metapex) to see which works better in saving the tooth and relieving pain.
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 treatments for deep cavities in baby molars that affect the tooth's nerve. It tests whether a natural material (chitosan) works as well as a standard one (formocresol) to save the tooth and avoid early loss.
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.
