This trial tests different mouthwashes to see how they affect the natural bacteria in your mouth and your overall health. You may be able to join if you are a healthy adult who does not smoke, take certain medications, or have certain health conditions.
This study tests whether a special antimicrobial mouthrinse can reduce plaque buildup and improve gum health over 6 months. If you have early gum disease (gingivitis) and are generally healthy, this trial may be a good fit.
This trial tests a probiotic lozenge (a dissolvable tablet) to see if it's safe and works well. It's for healthy adults who don't smoke and are between 18 and 70 years old.
This study tests whether using a certain toothpaste and mouth rinse can reduce gum inflammation (gingivitis) better than brushing alone. It is for people with mild to moderate gum disease who have not used tobacco or certain medications recently.
This study tests whether a commercial toothpaste can reduce harmful bacteria in your mouth. It's for people with good general health who get regular dental cleanings and have a specific type of bacteria linked to gum disease.
This trial tests a special mouthwash (chlorhexidine) to see how well it prevents gum inflammation. It compares a standard version to one that also reduces tooth staining. You may be eligible if you are healthy, do not smoke, and have at least 24 teeth with healthy gums.
