Mobile app for gum care after tooth root treatment
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether a mobile phone app can help you clean your teeth better and reduce gum disease, especially in areas where the tooth roots meet. If you have moderate to severe gum disease in your lower back teeth, this app might help you improve your oral care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have advanced gum disease (periodontitis) affecting the lower back teeth, with bone loss around the roots.
- You are otherwise healthy — no diabetes, high blood pressure, or other conditions that affect gum treatment.
- You do not smoke or drink alcohol.
- You have not had gum treatment or taken antibiotics in the past 6 months.
- You have a mobile phone to use for the health app.
