Tinder fungus gum disease treatment study
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests if a toothpaste and powder made from a natural fungus (tinder fungus) can help treat advanced gum disease when used along with standard deep cleaning. It may be a good option if you have serious gum disease and haven't started treatment yet.

This study tests whether a commercial toothpaste can reduce harmful bacteria in your mouth. It's for people with good general health who get regular dental cleanings and have a specific type of bacteria linked to gum disease.
This study tests whether shining a special light on your gums after standard cleaning can help treat gum disease better. Researchers will compare light therapy combined with standard treatment versus standard treatment alone to see if it reduces gum pocket depth and improves healing.
This trial tests whether using a probiotic toothpaste can improve gum health in people with gum disease (periodontitis). It may help reduce inflammation and slow bone loss.
This study tests a gentle, non-surgical gum treatment for people with advanced gum disease who have deep pockets around their teeth. Researchers want to see how well the treatment works and whether smoking affects healing.
This trial tests whether special granulation tissue can help regenerate bone and gum support in people with severe gum disease who still have deep bone pockets after initial treatment. It may offer a better way to heal these defects.
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.
