This study compares two ways to fix cavities on the roots of teeth in adults who have cancer. One method uses a glass ionomer filling plus a special antibacterial treatment (SMART), and the other uses the standard filling approach. The goal is to see which method works better and lasts longer for people going through cancer treatment.
