Salivary Testing

What is Salivary Testing? 

We offer services of saliva testing and analysis to evaluate and identify bacteria that could be in your saliva.

Why?

Certain bacteria in our mouths contribute to conditions like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cognitive decline and a host of other systemic diseases. They are the causitive agents of periodontal disease. We want to help our patients achieve overall health and wellness. Disease prevention is important!
