NCT ID NCT07526883
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether non-surgical gum disease treatment could reduce inflammation and improve blood fat levels in young adults with severe periodontitis. Fifty participants (25 with gum disease and 25 healthy) were involved. Those with gum disease received deep cleaning and oral hygiene instructions, and their blood was tested before treatment and again at 2 and 6 months after. The goal was to see if treating the gums could have benefits beyond the mouth.
