Camel milk protein could help regrow bone in gums
NCT ID NCT07358104
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a protein from camel milk, made into tiny nanoparticles, can help repair bone damage caused by severe gum disease. About 44 adults with deep gum pockets and bone loss will receive the treatment during surgery. The goal is to see if the camel protein helps fill in the bone defects better than standard care.
