Summary
This study looked at whether treating gum disease (periodontitis) could lower prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels and reduce urinary tract infections in men with chronic prostatitis or recurrent UTIs. Sixty men were split into three groups: one received gum treatment, one got oral hygiene advice only, and one had no gum care. Researchers measured PSA and infection rates over 120 days to see if gum therapy helps control these conditions.
