Manuka honey rinse for gum disease in dialysis patients
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether a manuka honey mouth rinse can help treat gum disease in people who are on dialysis for kidney failure. If you have both kidney failure and gum disease, this study may offer a natural way to improve your oral health.

This study looks at a specific immune marker (TLR-4) in people with gum disease, comparing those who also have end-stage kidney disease (on dialysis) to those who are otherwise healthy. The goal is to understand how gum disease might be different when kidney failure is also present.
This study tests whether bee venom can help manage bone and mineral problems that often occur in people on dialysis. If you have been on dialysis for at least 6 months and are not planning a kidney transplant in the next year, you may be able to join.
This trial tests whether a deep dental cleaning procedure can help slow the progression of advanced kidney disease in people with type 2 diabetes who are not yet on dialysis. It may be an option for those with moderate gum disease and at least 20 natural teeth.
This study looks at the link between gum disease (periodontitis) and chronic kidney disease. It may help understand if treating one affects the other.
This study looks at how diet affects the health of your gums in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It may help understand if certain foods can improve mouth health and overall well-being.
This study tests whether rinsing your mouth with a special saltwater solution (electrolyzed water) can help treat gum disease. It's for people who have advanced gum disease and want to try a simple, gentle addition to regular care.
