Saliva Sampling

Service Description

In cases of halitosis (bad breath) or high persistent periodontal pockets we may do a saliva sample. We send your sample to a lab and find out exactly what bacteria is present in your mouth. The information allows us to start an antibiotic to kill of those specific strains. All patients will have a pH test and will be provided with information on how to have a neutral pH. Actual service times may vary.
