New One-Visit crowns put to the test
NCT ID NCT03716817
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new type of ceramic crown that can be made and placed in a single dental visit, avoiding the need for temporary crowns. Fifty adults with decayed, fractured, or poorly filled molars or premolars received these crowns and were followed for up to five years. The goal was to see how long the crowns last and whether they cause problems like sensitivity or loosening.
