Periodontitis, also known as gum disease and pyorrhea, is a set of inflammatory diseases affecting the tissues surrounding the teeth.

Periodontitis involves progressive loss of the alveolar bone around the teeth, and if left untreated, can lead to the loosening and subsequent loss of teeth.

Bacteria (common noun bacteria, singular bacterium) constitute a large domain of prokaryotic microorganisms.

Typically a few micrometres in length, bacteria have a number of shapes, ranging from spheres to rods and spirals.

Bacteria were among the first life forms to appear on Earth, and are present in most of its habitats.

Bacteria inhabit soil, water, acidic hot springs, radioactive waste, and the deep portions of Earth's crust.

Bacteria also live in symbiotic and parasitic relationships with plants and animals.

Most bacteria have not been characterised, and only about half of the bacterial phyla have species that can be grown in the laboratory.

The study of bacteria is known as bacteriology, a branch of microbiology.

Oral hygiene is the practice of keeping the mouth and teeth clean to prevent dental problems, most commonly, dental cavities, gingivitis, periodontal (gum) diseases and bad breath.

There are also oral pathologic conditions in which good oral hygiene is required for healing and regeneration of the oral tissues.

These conditions include gingivitis, periodontitis, and dental trauma, such as subluxation, oral cysts, and following wisdom tooth extraction.

Clinical trials are experiments or observations done in clinical research.

Such prospective biomedical or behavioral research studies on human participants are designed to answer specific questions about biomedical or behavioral interventions, including new treatments (such as novel vaccines, drugs, dietary choices, dietary supplements, and medical devices) and known interventions that warrant further study and comparison.

Clinical trials generate data on safety and efficacy.

They are conducted only after they have received health authority/ethics committee approval in the country where approval of the therapy is sought.

These authorities are responsible for vetting the risk/benefit ratio of the trial – their approval does not mean that the therapy is 'safe' or effective, only that the trial may be conducted.

Cause, also known as etiology and aetiology, is the reason or origination of something.

The word is derived from the Greek, aitiologia, "giving a reason for" (aitia, "cause"; and).
