This study tests whether shining a special light on your gums after standard cleaning can help treat gum disease better. Researchers will compare light therapy combined with standard treatment versus standard treatment alone to see if it reduces gum pocket depth and improves healing.
This trial tests a new light treatment for gum disease using a special dye that targets and kills harmful bacteria. It may help if you have advanced gum disease and haven't had treatment recently.
This trial tests if a special gel placed in the gums after deep cleaning helps treat periodontitis (advanced gum disease). You may qualify if you have gum pockets of 5mm or deeper that bleed when probed.
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.
