New Recruiting Trial: Effects of Periodontal Treatment Associated With Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy on Halitosis in Patients With Diabetes Mellitus

WHY IT MATTERS

If you have diabetes and struggle with bad breath despite good oral hygiene, this trial offers access to an innovative combination treatment that may address both the gum disease and halitosis that often accompany diabetes.

Researchers are looking for people with diabetes to test a new way to treat bad breath caused by gum disease. The treatment combines regular gum cleaning with a special light therapy that kills bacteria in the mouth. This study will help doctors understand if this combination works better than standard gum treatment alone.
