Summary

This study looked at 51 adults with advanced gum disease and loose front teeth. Researchers compared minimally invasive non-surgical therapy (MINST) alone versus MINST plus splinting (joining teeth together for support). The goal was to see if adding splints improves gum health and quality of life. Results will help dentists choose the best approach for managing loose teeth.
