Hair hormone test links stress to gum disease severity
NCT ID NCT07443605
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 42 adults with advanced gum disease to see if stress hormones (cortisol and DHEAS) found in hair could measure the body's overall stress load. Researchers took hair samples and gave questionnaires at the start and 60 days after standard gum treatment. The goal was to understand how chronic stress might influence gum disease, not to test a new treatment.
