5-Year dental filler study aims to prove its worth
NCT ID NCT05247138
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how well a dental sealer called BioRoot RCS works for root canals over 5 and 10 years. Researchers will check 142 adults who had root canal treatment with this material 5 years ago. They will measure success by absence of pain, infection, and other signs of failure.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- BioRoot RCS (a dental sealer used with gutta-percha points to fill root canals)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could confirm that BioRoot RCS provides long-lasting, safe root canal fillings, reducing the need for retreatment.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational follow-up study, not a new treatment test. Results may not apply to all patients, and some teeth may still fail over time.
