What Is Saliva Testing?

Saliva testing analyzes a simple saliva sample to measure the levels of bacteria associated with tooth decay and gum disease, along with other indicators of oral health risk. The results provide a clearer picture of your individual risk factors than a visual exam alone.

Testing is quick, painless, and typically performed at a routine visit. Dr. Natalia Homyak will review your results with you and recommend any adjustments to your home care routine or treatment plan based on your individual risk profile.
