Pregnancy gum shield: new lactoferrin routine tested
NCT ID NCT07069140
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether using a lactoferrin-based toothpaste and mouthwash twice daily, along with regular professional cleanings, can prevent gum disease in pregnant women. Forty pregnant women in their second trimester will be split into two groups: one using both the toothpaste and mouthwash, and the other using only the toothpaste. The main goal is to see if the full protocol reduces dental plaque buildup over six months.
