Mysmile is a study investigating whether improving oral health can slow memory loss.

Alzheimer’s disease may be linked to oral health and certain bacteria that are found in the mouth (oral bacteria).

We want to see if keeping teeth and gums clean in people living with memory loss can slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. 

 

The Mysmile study is now completed and no longer enrolling participants.
