Diabetes drug tested as gum disease treatment
NCT ID NCT07215156
Summary
This study aims to see if adding a special gel to standard gum cleaning works better for treating moderate gum disease. Researchers will compare a gel containing metformin (a diabetes medication) against a standard antimicrobial gel (chlorhexidine) and against cleaning alone. Sixty adults with moderate periodontitis will have their gum health tracked for six months to see which approach best reduces inflammation and supports bone health.
