Can a light device at home tame implant gum disease?

NCT ID NCT06017817

First seen Aug 07, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026

Summary

This trial tests whether a home-use antibacterial light device, called Lumoral, can help manage peri-implantitis—an infection and inflammation around dental implants. Participants with deep pockets and bone loss around implants will use the device alongside standard oral hygiene and professional cleaning. The study measures changes in bleeding and inflammatory markers to see if the light treatment improves gum health and supports implant stability.
