ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at two types of materials used to fill cavities in children's teeth: Alkasite restorative material and glass ionomer cement. The goal is to see how well each material works in treating tooth decay in primary molars, which are the back teeth in young children. The trial is not yet recruiting participants, but when it starts, it will focus on children aged 5 to 7 years who have cavities in their primary molars that do not involve the pulp (the sensitive part of the tooth).

To be eligible for the trial, children must be able to cooperate during the dental procedure and must not have any serious health issues. Parents who are interested will need to provide consent for their child's participation. If a child is chosen for the study, they can expect to receive one of the two types of dental fillings, and their progress will be monitored to evaluate how well the filling works over time. This study aims to help improve dental treatments for young children with tooth decay.
