NCT ID NCT07677826

First seen Jul 01, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether taking coenzyme Q10 and vitamin C, alone or together, can improve healing and reduce dark gum color after surgical gum depigmentation. The trial involves 20 healthy adults with dark gums who undergo a simple scalpel procedure to remove pigmented tissue. Researchers will measure changes in gum color and healing over time to see if these supplements offer any added benefit.
