Summary

This study examines a possible connection between gum disease and chronic neck pain. Researchers will compare neck pain intensity and daily disability among adults aged 30-55 with healthy gums, gingivitis, or periodontitis. Participants complete pain scales and questionnaires to see if worse gum health relates to worse neck symptoms.
