NCT ID NCT07700628

First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study investigates whether a collagen hydrogel called H42 can help treat deep gum pockets caused by periodontitis or peri-implantitis. Researchers will measure changes in pocket depth, plaque, gum attachment, and bleeding over 90 days in adults aged 25 to 65 with 1 to 5 gum defects. The study also tracks pain and healing after treatment. It is a retrospective review of how H42 was used in standard practice, not a controlled experiment.

What this could lead to
If successful, H42 could offer a simple, non-surgical option to reduce gum pocket depth and improve gum health in people with periodontitis or peri-implantitis.
What could go wrong
This is a small, retrospective study without a control group, so results may not prove effectiveness. The device is new and long-term benefits or risks are unknown.
