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.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 looks at whether a deep cleaning of the gums (called subgingival instrumentation) can help slow down the progression of kidney failure in people who have both type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. If you have moderate gum disease, this treatment might help keep your kidneys working longer.
This study looks at how gum disease (periodontitis) and chronic kidney disease are connected. By joining, you'll help researchers understand if treating one might affect the other.
This study looks at how a special diet might affect your kidneys and your oral health. It aims to find out if changing what you eat can help people with chronic kidney disease feel better and have healthier gums.
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.
This study explores whether people with certain rare kidney diseases or chronic kidney problems have more gum disease than others. Researchers will examine your teeth and gums to understand the connection and help improve care for people with kidney conditions.
