Comparing two tooth fillings for children with weak first molars
Part of Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two ways to fill permanent back teeth that have soft enamel (molar incisor hypomineralization, or MIH). It aims to find which filling method works better and lasts longer for children aged 7 to 11.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two ways of numbing the mouth before dental filling in children with a condition called molar-incisor hypomineralization (chalky teeth). One method uses a computer to give the numbing medicine, and the other is the traditional method. The goal is to see if the computer-assisted method is more comfortable and effective for children.
This study tests two different tooth-colored filling materials for cavities in the back molars of children. It aims to see which material works better and lasts longer, helping to choose the best option for pediatric dental care.
This study tests a new treatment for children with a tooth condition called MIH that causes sensitive and weakened molars. It combines a special light therapy and a new filling material to help reduce pain and make the fillings last longer.
This study tests whether a new pre-etched bioactive sealant works better than a standard resin-based one to protect permanent molars affected by molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH), a condition that makes teeth softer and more prone to cavities. It aims to find a more effective way to prevent decay in these vulnerable teeth.
This study compares different filling materials used to repair cavities in baby teeth. It aims to find which filling works best and lasts longest for children.
This study compares two types of tooth-colored fillings (glass ionomer cements) for cavities on the sides of back teeth in children. It aims to see which filling lasts longer and works better for restoring baby or permanent molars.
