Gum disease and kidney health: could your diet be making it worse?
NCT ID NCT07427069
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This observational study looks at whether a diet that promotes inflammation can make gum disease worse in people with chronic kidney disease. Researchers will assess the diets and gum health of 100 adults with kidney disease. The goal is to understand if eating more inflammatory foods is linked to more severe gum problems, which could lead to better dietary advice for patients.
