NCT ID NCT07547904

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a new type of dental filling called a bioactive bulk-fill composite for treating cavities in back teeth. Researchers will compare it to a standard filling in 34 adults, each receiving both types in similar cavities. The goal is to see if the new material improves how well the filling stays in place and looks over 12 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Activa BioACTIVE Bulk Flow (bioactive bulk-fill composite dental filling material)

What this could lead to

If it works, this could lead to better, longer-lasting dental fillings for cavities, reducing the need for replacements.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage study with only 34 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The new material might not perform better than the standard filling.
