First seen Feb 14, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study looks at whether treating gum disease (periodontitis) can improve heart failure in 80 adults. Participants with heart failure and gum disease get deep dental cleaning, while a control group waits 6 months for treatment. Researchers check blood and saliva for heart failure markers at 3 and 6 months. Heart failure medication continues as usual, so this is about managing the condition, not curing it.
