This study looks at whether eating more nitrate-rich vegetables changes inflammatory markers and the balance of bacteria in the mouth for people with periodontitis (serious gum disease). It may help us understand better diet-based support alongside standard non-surgical gum treatment.
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 uses a special color-measuring tool to see how gum color changes after basic gum disease treatment. It may help find better ways to check if treatment is working.
This study tests whether vitamin D supplements can reduce inflammation and improve healing in people with gum disease, ranging from mild gingivitis to advanced periodontitis. Researchers will compare how vitamin D affects different stages of gum disease.
