What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study will enroll 2,000 adults to see if non-invasive methods like smartphone photos, dental X-rays, and questionnaires can accurately detect gum disease compared to a standard clinical exam. Researchers will use artificial intelligence to analyze the images and combine data from different sources. The goal is to develop scalable, easy-to-use screening tools for periodontal health in both dental clinics and community settings.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to simple, AI-powered screening tools for gum disease that can be used in clinics or even at home, making early detection easier and more accessible.
What could go wrong
This is a diagnostic study, not a treatment trial. The AI tools may not be accurate enough to replace a dentist's exam, and results may vary across different populations or settings.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Participants

About 2,000 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Nov 2025

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Nov 2028

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population will consist of a convenience sample of consecutive adult patients seeking routine dental care across five participating dental centers. We aim to enroll a total of 2000 participants, representing the full spectrum of periodontal conditions (i.e., periodontal health, gingivitis, and periodontitis stages I through IV) based on the reference clinical examination.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Adult patients aged 18 years or older. 2. Seeking dental care at one of the participating study centers. 3. Ability to understand and willingness to provide written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Edentulous patients (complete tooth loss). 2. Pregnancy or lactation. 3. History of periodontal therapy (other than supragingival prophylaxis/cleaning) within the past 12 months. 4. Use of antibiotic medication within the 3 months prior to enrollment.
