At our office, we utilize clinical laboratory services from OralDNA Labs to ensure that we provide our patients with the most accurate and comprehensive oral health information. OralDNA Labs® is a specialty diagnostics company designed to provide reliable, definitive, and cost-effective clinical tests that guide oral health professionals in detecting and prognosing disease at an earlier, more treatable stage.
OralDNA is a saliva-based DNA diagnostic test that gives us deeper insight into your oral health. Unlike traditional dental exams, which rely only on what can be seen, OralDNA examines bacteria and pathogens beneath the surface. We’re proud to offer OralDNA as a non-invasive and easy way to enhance your oral healthcare in Greensburg, PA, using either a simple oral rinse or a saliva sample.
Not all oral health problems are visible during a regular dental exam. Harmful bacteria and pathogens can live below the gumline or deep in the tissues of your mouth and silently lead to gum disease and other serious issues. Advanced diagnostics, such as OralDNA, help identify these risks and provide effective treatment as early as possible.
The process begins with a quick and comfortable sample. You will either rinse your mouth or provide a saliva sample during your visit. The collection takes only a few minutes to complete.
We’ll send your sample to OralDNA Labs for advanced testing. The lab analyzes the DNA of bacteria, pathogens, and other disease indicators, providing detailed and accurate information that cannot be obtained during a standard examination.
Once testing is complete, we receive a clear and detailed report. This report presents the types and levels of bacteria and other disease indicators. We’ll review the results with you and explain what they mean for your oral health.
OralDNA helps catch problems before symptoms appear. Early detection allows for easier and more effective treatment.
Your results help us create a care plan designed just for you. Rather than treating problems after they appear, we can tailor your treatment plan to your specific bacteria and risk factors.
Oral health is connected to overall health. OralDNA provides insight that may relate to inflammation throughout the body and risks to your overall well-being.
Testing is gentle and stress-free. No needles or discomfort involved.
Your OralDNA results allow our team at Lane Center for Advanced Dentistry to make your treatments more precise, effective, and comfortable while eliminating unnecessary expenses for treatments that don’t address the root of the problem.
It allows us to target the specific bacteria and risk factors affecting your mouth, rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. This leads to more effective care, better long-term results, and greater peace of mind.
