At Whole Dental Wellness in Roseville oral DNA testing helps us better pinpoint what is going on in your mouth and guide you on the proper path.
As healthcare providers, medical or dental, we all need to understand this connection so we can act quickly and appropriately to diagnose and treat the underlying inflammatory problem.
For this reason, in some cases, we may recommend a simple, swish and spit saliva test to determine what bacteria in your mouth are contributing to your periodontal disease, and perhaps other issues going on in your body. With these oral DNA saliva tests Roseville healthcare providers can help identify harmful bacteria that threaten your oral and whole body health. As a result, we can target our care, aiming to greatly reduce or eliminate these harmful bugs.
