NCT ID NCT06252337
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two root canal filling techniques: one using a newer bioceramic sealer and another using a traditional epoxy resin sealer. Researchers will track 80 healthy adults over two years to see which method leads to better healing and tooth survival. The goal is to find out if the newer material offers any advantage.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- bioceramic sealer and epoxy resin sealer
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that a newer bioceramic sealer works as well as or better than traditional materials for root canal treatments.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 80 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Differences between techniques might be small or not meaningful.
