The La Biome Oral Microbiome Test offers an in-depth look at your oral health by analysing the microorganisms living in your mouth. Using advanced PCR saliva analysis, this practitioner-grade test targets a wide range of bacteria and fungi that influence both your oral and overall health.
Why Test Your Oral Microbiome?
Your mouth is home to a complex community of microorganisms that play a critical role in oral health. When this balance is disrupted, it can lead to gum disease, tooth decay, bad breath, and more serious issues like periodontitis and oral cancers. These imbalances, or dysbiosis, can also have systemic effects, contributing to conditions like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and even neurodegeneration. By pinpointing the bacteria and fungi in your mouth, this test helps you take proactive steps to protect both your oral and overall health.
Key Benefits of the La Biome Oral Microbiome Test:
- Comprehensive Analysis: The test identifies and measures a wide range of microorganisms, including key bacteria like Streptococcus mutans (linked to tooth decay) and Porphyromonas gingivalis (associated with gum disease), as well as fungi like Candida albicans.
- Personalised Recommendations: After your test, you’ll receive tailored advice from our microbiome expert, including recommended dental health products, ingredients to avoid or use, beneficial foods, and probiotics or prebiotics to support a balanced oral microbiome.
