This study looks at gum disease (periodontitis and gingivitis) and inflammation using blood and dental samples. It may help researchers understand how inflammation affects gum health.
This study examines specific bacteria in your mouth to understand their role in healthy gums versus gum disease. Researchers will collect samples to measure bacterial levels and help improve how gum disease is diagnosed and treated.
This study looks at how gum inflammation and certain genetic changes relate to obesity. It may help explain why obesity affects oral health, and could lead to better ways to prevent or treat gum disease.
This study looks at how bacteria in the mouth pass between family members, especially from parents with gum disease to children. It aims to find ways to break the cycle of bacteria that cause cavities and gum problems, which may help prevent future dental issues in children.
This study examines whether certain microscopic parasites in the mouth are linked to gum disease. Researchers will compare people with healthy gums to those with gum inflammation or disease to understand this connection better.
This study compares two different medicines (given vaginally or by mouth) to help complete a miscarriage or missed abortion in the first weeks of pregnancy. It aims to find which method works better and is safer for women.
