Summary

This study looks at how antibiotics like amoxicillin and metronidazole work in the body when used with deep cleaning for severe gum disease. Researchers want to find the best dose and treatment length (3 vs 7 days) to kill harmful bacteria without overusing antibiotics. About 45 adults with severe gum disease will participate, and their gum fluid, saliva, and blood will be tested over 6 months.
