NCT ID NCT06211582
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested three different tooth-colored filling materials for cavities on the sides of teeth (Class II cavities). 47 healthy adults received fillings and were checked after 6 months and 1 year. Dentists rated the fillings on appearance, fit, and any problems like staining or cracks. The goal was to see which material works best in everyday use.
