This ground-breaking and non-invasive testing practice provides vital information on the bacteria that exist in the mouth.
As humans, we play host to millions of living biological units, which include microbes (bacteria) that live in the mouth. The community of these biological units is known as our microbiome.
Our lifestyle has a profound impact on the microbiome; diet, tobacco and vaping, alcohol consumption and stress can all affect the balance of our microbiome and its properties.
With microbiome testing, we can identify if pathogens are present and identify how to move forward with treatment that will create harmony between the host (the human) and the living microbes that are housed in the mouth.
