NCT ID NCT07535177

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at two proteins, Gas6 and sMerTK, in the fluid around teeth to see if they differ between healthy gums, gingivitis, and periodontitis. Researchers will collect samples from 90 adults and measure these proteins. The goal is to better understand the biology of gum disease, not to test a treatment.
