Different cavity designs for 3D-printed tooth fillings
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of preparing a molar for a 3D-printed tooth-colored filling. It aims to see which method keeps the tooth strong and healthy over 18 months. If you have a large cavity in a back tooth, this trial might help you get a new type of restoration.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two types of tooth-colored fillings for large cavities in back teeth. One is a new 3D-printed filling, and the other is a directly placed composite; the goal is to see which performs better over time.
This study tests how long different types of dental fillings made with 3D printing last in back teeth (premolars and molars). It may help you by comparing filling types in a careful, structured way.
This study compares three types of tooth-colored fillings for cavities between teeth. It aims to see which filling works best over 18 months, so you can keep your natural teeth healthy.
This study tests a new self-hardening filling material against a light-activated bioactive filling for cavities between back teeth. The goal is to see which material works better and lasts longer.
This study compares two modern ways to make partial fillings (onlays/overlays) for back teeth: one using 3D printing and the other using CAD/CAM milling. Both aim to preserve healthy tooth structure and provide a durable, natural-looking restoration.
This study compares two types of tooth-colored fillings (inlays) for large cavities in back teeth. One is made from a hard ceramic-like material made by a computer, and the other is a composite resin filling placed by hand. The goal is to see which one lasts better and works best for repairing big cavities.
