Gum treatment and mouthwash study for gum disease
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests if a professional gum cleaning combined with a special mouthwash can improve gum health and blood vessel function. It may help people with early gum disease who haven't had recent gum treatment.

This study tests two types of mouthwash to see which helps treat gum disease better when used with regular dental care. It may be a good option if you have moderate to severe gum disease and are generally healthy.
This trial tests a special mouthwash (chlorhexidine) to see how well it prevents gum inflammation. It compares a standard version to one that also reduces tooth staining. You may be eligible if you are healthy, do not smoke, and have at least 24 teeth with healthy gums.
This study looks at whether severe gum disease (periodontitis) is linked to stiffer arteries and higher heart risk. If you have advanced gum disease or healthy gums, you may be able to join to help researchers understand this connection.
This study tests a special mouthwash (Amphion) used along with standard nonsurgical gum disease treatment to see if it improves your oral health. It is for adults with gum disease who have not had a deep cleaning or used a germ-killing mouthwash in the last 3 months.
This study tests if non-surgical gum treatment can improve heart health markers in people with stable angina. It may help you if you have gum disease and stable chest pain from heart disease.
This trial checks if a standard deep-cleaning dental procedure for gum disease can change a blood substance linked to blood vessel health. It may help people with unstable gum disease and mild to moderate gum pockets.
