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 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.
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 methods for treating deep gum pockets caused by advanced gum disease. It will help find the best way to reduce pocket depth and save teeth.
