Gum and implant disease tissue profile study
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study looks at the genetic and bacterial profiles in gum disease and implant infections. It might help find new ways to diagnose or treat these conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have gum disease (periodontitis) in at least two teeth that are not next to each other
- You have an infection around a dental implant (peri-implantitis) in at least one implant
- You have not had surgery for gum or implant disease in the last 6 months
- You have not taken antibiotics by mouth or through a vein in the last 6 months

This trial studies people with advanced gum disease (periodontitis) or gum inflammation around dental implants (peri-implantitis), and compares them with people who have healthy gums. The goal is to understand inflammation and how it relates to these dental conditions.
This trial compares two ways to treat gum disease around dental implants (peri-implantitis) and natural teeth (periodontitis), using either a non-surgical approach or a non-surgical approach plus an antibiotic gel. It aims to see which method works better to reduce inflammation and improve oral health.
This study looks at the bacteria living in deep gum pockets around implants or teeth during different types of gum surgery. It may help determine which surgical approach is best for your kind of gum infection.
This study looks at how gums react to plaque buildup around dental implants that were previously treated for infection. It may help understand if one treatment method leads to healthier gums.
This study looks at whether tiny metal particles from dental implants are linked to the progression of peri-implantitis, an infection of the gum and bone around an implant. It may help researchers understand why some implant infections get worse and could lead to better treatments.
This study looks at gum disease (periodontitis and gingivitis) and inflammation using blood and dental samples. It may help researchers understand how inflammation affects gum health.
