Pro-resolution mediators in severe gum disease before and after treatment
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study looks at natural substances in your blood that help reduce gum inflammation. Researchers want to see how these substances change after standard gum disease treatment, which may lead to better ways to manage severe periodontitis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You must have severe gum disease with deep pockets and bone loss around your teeth.
- You must have lost some teeth from gum disease (at least 1 tooth, but no more than 12).
- You must not be pregnant, nursing, or smoke more than 20 cigarettes a day.

This study looks at whether the level of a protein called high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (a sign of inflammation) in your blood and mouth rinse is related to the severity of gum disease. If you join, you'll provide samples to help researchers understand this connection, which could improve how gum disease is monitored.
This study looks at how certain blood and saliva measurements relate to gum disease and healing after a deep cleaning. It may help find better ways to track gum health.
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.
This study looks at two proteins in your mouth that help fight infection. It aims to understand how these proteins differ in people with healthy gums, gingivitis, or periodontitis, which could lead to better treatments.
This study looks at how inflammation-related proteins in the blood change during gum disease treatment done under IV sedation. It may help doctors understand how the body responds to treatment.
This study looks at how the body's immune system reacts right after standard gum disease treatment. It aims to understand the inflammation process, which could lead to better ways to manage gum disease.
