ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at two different types of materials used to fix cavities in back teeth, called molars. The researchers want to see which material, a hybrid resin composite or a hybrid ceramic onlay, works better over time. They will also check how much each material wears down after 18 months. If you participate, you'll receive one of these materials for your molar and will have follow-up visits at 6, 12, and 18 months to check how well the restoration is holding up.

To be eligible for this trial, you should be between the ages of 18 and 62, able to handle dental procedures, and willing to commit to the follow-up appointments. However, if you have severe cavities or specific types of tooth damage, you might not qualify. This study is important because it aims to find the best option for treating tooth decay, helping both patients and dentists make informed choices about dental care.
