Evaluation of Toothbrush Bristles
NCT07306026 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to investigate two different types of toothbrush bristles. The main questions it aims to answer are the effects of two different bristle types on: * how much plaque is on the teeth * how deep the space is between gums and teeth * how much gum and bone are attached to the teeth * whether the gums bleed when checked * if the gums get scratched or irritated Researchers will compare toothbrushes with tapered bristles to those with regular round bristles. Participants will be randomly assigned toothbrush A or B to use at home during the study.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT07306026
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT07306026 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 70 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is State University of New York at Buffalo, which has 234 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Gingivitis and Periodontal Diseases appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Toothbrush with tapered bristles is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT07306026 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include New York. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
