First seen Nov 18, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 13 times
Summary
This study explores whether treating advanced gum disease can slow down Alzheimer's disease. Researchers think that gum infections cause body-wide inflammation, which may worsen Alzheimer's. 26 people with both conditions will receive gum treatment and be monitored for 2 years with memory tests, blood work, and brain scans. The goal is to see if healthier gums lead to slower cognitive decline.
