What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This trial compares two dental filling materials—a glass hybrid and a composite with fiber reinforcement—in children whose first permanent molars have a condition called molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH), which causes weak, chalky enamel. The study aims to see which material holds up better over five years in terms of retention, decay prevention, and overall function. Participants receive both types of fillings in different teeth, allowing a direct comparison within each child.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
dental restorative materials (glass hybrid and short fiber-reinforced composite with micro-hybrid composite)
What this could lead to
If one material outperforms the other, it could guide dentists toward more durable fillings for children with weak enamel, reducing the need for repeat treatments.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 31 participants, so results may not apply to all children. Both materials could perform similarly or fail over time.
