Oral Microbiome & Saliva Diagnostics
When standard exams leave questions open, saliva and microbiome markers help us personalise prevention, periodontal care, and follow-up.
In depth
When biology explains what the mirror cannot
Some patients keep getting cavities or gum inflammation despite solid routines. Microbiome and saliva diagnostics help us see biological patterns that a visual exam alone may not explain.
Testing is never a gimmick here. We recommend it when results are likely to change prevention, hygiene intensity, or therapy choices — then interpret findings alongside clinical signs.
The outcome is a more precise plan: what to intensify, what to simplify, and how to measure progress at recall.
Targeted testing
Used when it can change decisions, not as a blanket add-on.
Clinical context
Lab markers are read with your exam and history, never alone.
Actionable follow-up
Results feed into prevention and therapy you can follow.

- Interpretation alongside clinical findings
- A refined prevention or therapy plan
Candidates
Who it’s for
