Robot-Made fillings face off: which inlay material wins for big cavities?
NCT ID NCT07648485
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two types of computer-designed and milled inlays—hard hybrid ceramic and resin composite—for repairing large cavities in vital back teeth. Fifty healthy adults aged 16 to 50 with a single molar needing a large filling will receive one of the two inlays. Researchers will check how well the inlays fit, match tooth color, resist staining, avoid new decay, and hold up without breaking over two years.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
hard hybrid ceramic inlay or resin composite inlay
What this could lead to
If one material performs better, dentists may have clearer guidance on which CAD/CAM inlay lasts longer and looks better for large cavities in back teeth.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center trial with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Both materials could show similar performance or unexpected failures over time.
