Toothpaste study for stronger enamel in kids and teens
This study tests if a special toothpaste with hydroxyapatite (a natural mineral) can help strengthen tooth enamel in children and teenagers aged 6 to 18. It may help prevent cavities by making teeth harder and more resistant to acid.
Pavia, LombardyAges 6–18 - NCT07070453Recruiting
Light-activated therapy for gum disease treatment
This study tests whether adding a light-activated therapy (photodynamic therapy) to standard deep-cleaning can improve gum disease treatment. It is for adults with periodontitis who have not had recent gum treatment or taken certain medications.
Almada, Monte Da CaparicaAges 18 years+ - NCT07070479RecruitingPhase 2
Combination treatment for PD-1 resistant nasopharyngeal cancer

Albumin vs hyaluronic acid with growth factors for gum disease
This trial tests whether adding albumin or hyaluronic acid (both natural substances) to a special gum treatment helps heal gum pockets better. It is for people with moderate to advanced gum disease.
Al Mansurah, MansouraAges 25–45 - NCT07082972RecruitingPhase 4
Study of splint therapy and Botox for jaw muscle pain
This trial compares two treatments—a dental splint and Botox injections into the jaw muscle (masseter)—to see which one better relaxes head and neck muscles in people with myofascial pain syndrome. It may help you if you have facial pain related to muscle tension.
Istanbul, VeznecilerAges 18–55 - NCT07083050Recruiting
Comparing collagen membrane to gum graft for multiple gum recessions
