Summary

This study looked at 209 older adults (ages 50-70) taking blood pressure medication to see how many had cavities on the roots of their teeth. Researchers also checked saliva acidity and other risk factors. The goal was to understand if these medications are linked to root cavities, not to test a new treatment.
