What is Salivary Testing?

Non-Invasive Health Insights.

Salivary testing is a revolutionary diagnostic method that analyses your saliva to reveal critical information about your oral and systemic health. Your saliva contains DNA, RNA, proteins, and metabolites that reflect the state of your oral microbiome and overall health. It’s a painless, at-home collection method that yields powerful diagnostic insights.

Why Saliva?

Your mouth is the gateway to your body. Early detection of systemic issues through oral biomarkers supports long-term health and prevention.
