Mouth problems in palliative care: are we missing something?
NCT ID NCT07324525
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This survey study explores how common oral health issues like dry mouth and infections are in palliative care patients, and how well healthcare professionals understand dental care. Researchers will ask patients and members of the German Society for Palliative Medicine about their experiences and knowledge. The goal is to find gaps and suggest ways to better include dental care in palliative treatment.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could highlight gaps in dental care for palliative patients and guide better integration of oral health services.
What could go wrong
This is a small, non-interventional survey, so it won't test any treatment. Results may not apply to all palliative care settings.
