This study is looking into a new treatment called Polymer-Induced Liquid Precursor (PILP) for adults with cavities (dentin caries). Researchers want to see if PILP, either as a conditioner or a cement liner, can safely treat cavities in teeth. You might be able to join if you are between 18 and 64 years old, in good general health, and have at least one back tooth with a cavity that reaches the dentin (the layer beneath the enamel). Participants will have PILP or a placebo (an inactive substance) applied to their tooth before a filling. The main goal is to check the safety of PILP and see if it causes any problems for your tooth or overall health.

Study design

This is an interventional study with 30 planned participants, comparing PILP to a placebo. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three intervention groups.

What's involved

You will have PILP or a placebo applied to your tooth, complete two telephone calls within three months, and visit the clinic at three and six months after your filling. Follow-up evaluations also occur at 48 hours and 1 month post-procedure.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

You will be followed for six months after the dental procedure to monitor for any symptoms or adverse outcomes.
