Candida Fungus and Gum Disease in Syrian Patients
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a common fungus called Candida albicans is linked to chronic periodontitis (advanced gum disease). Researchers will examine gum samples from Syrian patients to understand this connection and may help improve gum disease treatment.
