One shade fits all? new tooth filling aims to match any Child's tooth color
NCT ID NCT07716033
First seen Jul 21, 2026 · Last updated Jul 22, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares a new single-shade tooth-colored filling material, Omnichroma, to a standard multi-shade filling in children aged 3 to 5 years who have cavities in both upper front teeth. The goal is to see if the one-shade material can match the color of the surrounding tooth just as well or better, while also being durable and easy to use. Each child gets one tooth filled with the new material and the other with the standard material, and the fillings are evaluated over 12 months.

- Tokuyama Palfique Omnichroma composite restoration
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this one-shade filling could simplify and speed up cavity repairs in young children, reducing chair time and the need for multiple color-matching steps.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early study with only 30 children, and the material may not match all tooth shades as claimed or may wear differently over time.
