Overview

The current study primarily aims to evaluate the presence of T. parvum in periodontal health and disease, and its correlation with clinical parameters. Subgingival plaque samples will be collected using sterile paper points then the samples will be analyzed using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) to detect T. parvum and estimate its relative amount in the biofilm. The results may help clarify the association between T. parvum and periodontitis.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
