NCT ID NCT07577258
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This pilot study tests whether a gel made from a special form of hyaluronan (HA35) can help people with mild gum recession and chronic gum inflammation. Thirty adults will apply the gel to their gums and teeth twice a day for 42 days. Researchers will measure changes in gum recession depth, pain, redness, swelling, and bleeding to see if the gel is safe and effective.
