This study examines how gum tissue heals in deep pockets that remain after standard gum disease treatment. Researchers will collect small samples of healing tissue to better understand gum disease and improve future treatments.
This trial tests whether taking probiotics (beneficial bacteria) alongside standard gum disease treatment can help reduce deep pockets in your gums and improve healing. You'd be asked to take probiotics as an add-on to the care you're already receiving.
This study compares two surgical techniques to treat deep gum pockets that remain after initial periodontal therapy. The goal is to see which method better reduces pocket depth and improves gum health.
This trial tests whether adding an oxygen-releasing gel to a standard deep-cleaning procedure helps heal severe gum pockets. It may help reduce pocket depth and improve gum health better than deep cleaning alone.
This study looks at whether a standard non-surgical gum disease treatment changes certain chemicals in your blood or saliva. It may help show how treating gum disease can improve your overall health.
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.
