9 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of the Hall technique and modified Hall technique to the conventional Stainless-Steel Crown restoration in the treatment of primary molars with dentinal caries with or without proximal ridge intact.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of using orthodontic bands with glass ionomer cement to arrest or reverse interproximal lesions as a preventive treatment compared to monitoring and oral hygiene. The investigators hypothesize that placing orthodontic bands with glass ionomer cement will arrest and possibly remineralize incipient carious lesions compared to teeth that are being monitored without intervention.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical efficacy of resin infiltration (Icon, DMG, Germany) compared to fluoride varnish (Duraphat Fluoride Varnish, Colgate, USA) in the management of proximal early caries lesions in primary molars over 24 months. In addition, this study will assess the use of a scanning fiber endoscope (SFE) laser optical device for the assessment of caries lesions and their progression in comparison to radiographic examination. A total of 50 participants (age 6-13 years) with at least 1 proximal early caries lesion will be enrolled. The participants will be followed up at 12 and 24 months. Lesion status will be monitored through radiographic and SFE laser optical device imaging.
The aim of the planned in-vivo trial is to investigate the effectiveness of the caries infiltration technique for the repression of caries progression. Within the framework of this investigation it is intended that the hypothesis to be substantiated is that carious cavities, which have been treated with the caries infiltration technique, exhibit significantly reduced radiological progression than those cavities that have been treated using standard preventive treatments. In this multicenter trial, a total of 90 test subjects are included and 45 test subjects at each institution are to be treated with both, the infiltration technique and using conventional fluoridation treatment in different sides of the mouth ("split-mouth design"). The anticipated result of this trial shall deliver information on the long-term effectiveness of caries infiltration to prevent the progression of existing approximal carious lesions, and thereby enable an improvement in caries prevention within the scope of dental treatment.
This study is investigating the efficacy of caries lesion infiltration therapy as compared to the current preventative approach for early caries lesions.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a new tooth-colored composite material is effective for load-bearing dental fillings.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether two tooth-colored glass ionomer materials are effective for load-bearing dental fillings.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether lesion infiltration is an effective management strategy to arrest early tooth decay.
The purpose of this study is to extend our knowledge concerning the clinical performance of two dental filling materials in molars. The study will compare two high-strength glass-ionomer filling materials. The investigators hypothesize that after two years (1) the clinical performance of both filling materials shows a similar survival rate, (2) the ChemFil Rock fillings show similar or higher incidence of fracture than Fuji IX GP fillings.
