Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate if treatment of periodontitis (gum disease) in a relatively young and healthy population can improve lung function. It is hypothesized that removing the dental biofilm reduce the source of inflammatory bacteria that can reach the lungs, and thereby reduce lung inflammation and lead to improved lung function.
