Comparing three treatments for decayed baby teeth
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares three different medicines used to treat decayed baby teeth when the nerve is still healthy but exposed due to decay. The goal is to find out which treatment works best to save the tooth and prevent pain or infection.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part

This study tests three materials used to protect the nerve of a decayed baby (permanent) tooth in children, helping it heal and continue growing. It compares two newer materials to an older standard one.
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 treatments for baby molar teeth that have deep decay but are still healthy otherwise: a newer material called Neo-putty (a type of bioceramic material) versus a standard medicine called formocresol. The goal is to see which one works better to keep the tooth healthy and prevent further problems.
This study compares two ways of treating badly infected or dead nerves in back baby teeth, to see which works better. It aims to relieve pain and save the teeth until they naturally fall out.
