This study looks at how gum disease (periodontitis) and chronic kidney disease are connected. By joining, you'll help researchers understand if treating one might affect the other.
This study explores whether people with certain rare kidney diseases or chronic kidney problems have more gum disease than others. Researchers will examine your teeth and gums to understand the connection and help improve care for people with kidney conditions.
This study looks at whether a deep cleaning of the gums (called subgingival instrumentation) can help slow down the progression of kidney failure in people who have both type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. If you have moderate gum disease, this treatment might help keep your kidneys working longer.
