Researchers track gum healing after standard periodontal care
NCT ID NCT07327658
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study observes 50 adults with advanced gum disease (periodontitis) to see how much their deep gum pockets shrink after standard non-surgical treatment. Researchers measure pocket depth before treatment and again at 1, 3, and 6 months afterward. The goal is to understand how effective routine care is, using only regular dental check-up records.
