Tooth-colored
fillings for back teeth
in adult volunteers
In this
study we are comparing two
tooth-colored filling
materials in adults over a
period of 2 years. Both
materials are FDA-approved
and are used daily in
dental practices.
Our team is
interested to compare how
these fillings perform
under the same
circumstances. Therefore
we study two back teeth in
the same mouth.
Participants will thus
need to have two back
teeth that need a filling
on the side. Each of them
will be filled with one of
the two materials. The
materials are called
'resin composites'.
One material
has been a successful
filling material for
almost 20 years.
The other
one is a similar, but
stronger material. An
early version of this
material has been used for
3 years and has had good
results. Patients and
dentists were happy with
it. This material has now
been improved to perform
even better.
We want to
find out how much
improvement the newer
version provides over the
older material. Dr.
Adriana Cordero Wilson,
Clinical Assistant
Professor in the
Department of
Prosthodontics, is the
Co-Principal Investigator
of the study. She will be
leading the study
activities, while two
other experienced
clinicians will be placing
the fillings. The fillings
will be evaluated by the
team members for at least
2 years.
