The findings above reflect the physiology of your mouth based on saliva and bacteria. These results help us develop a highlypersonalized plan to prevent cavities, gingivitis, and gum disease. Our goal is to ensure your optimal oral health for years to come.
Your saliva contains an average ammonia content. You may want to try and increase this level by increasing the amount of protein in your diet.
Your saliva doesn't contain high levels of protein, which could indicate your diet may contain too many carbohydrates.
You have a slightly elevated level of white blood cells in your saliva probably due to gingivitis or other sores in your mouth.
There are elevated levels of blood in your saliva. This can be caused by aggressive brushing, gingivitis, gum disease, or other sores in your mouth.
Date 2019/12/24
Your mouth appears to have elevated levels of the bacteria that cause cavities. We will provide you with some strategies to decrease this level.
Congratulations! Your saliva contains all the chemistry necessary to help your teeth and gums stay healthy.
Congratulations! Your salivary pH is considered "very good." While this can help prevent cavities, you may notice more tartar forming on your teeth.

MOLECULAR DETECTION OF S. MUTANS/ S. SOBRINUS/ L. CASEI
Bacteria Test Result
Streptococcus mutans/S. sobrinus Detected
Lactobacillus casei Detected
Bacterial Risk
HIGH RISK
Bacterial Level: 7.9 x 10 (genomes/ml)4
Summary of Results:- Interpretation: S. mutans/S. sobrinus and L. casei have been detected in this sample. The combined amounts of these pathogens indicate a HIGHRISK of the development and progression of dental caries.- Significance: The detection of S. mutans/S. sobrinus DNA indicates presence of these organisms in the oral cavity. This is an indicator of a change inthe oral microbiome, which typically leads to the creation of an acidic environment. The presence of L. casei may indicate further acidic change in thebiofilm and may predict the advancing demineralization of enamel, a hallmark of caries.
Caries Risk Factors:
Bacterial Risk: S. mutans/ S. sobrinus andL. casei in plaque convert dietary sugar intoacid. This acid erodes the hard tissues ofthe teeth (enamel, dentin and cementum).The result of HIGH RISK is based on thequantity of these bacteria present in thesample. Efforts to reduce the level of thesebacteria will lower the risk of future dentalcaries.
Oral Care: Poor oral hygiene and infrequent dental checkups are riskfactors for the build up of plaque on teeth that hold caries-causingbacteria. Tooth brushing with fluoridated toothpaste, along with flossingare a mainstay of good oral health.Patient History: The best predictor of the risk for future dental caries is apast history of cavities. One's personal history is influenced by inheritedgenetic factors, home and work environments and changes in life/healthstatus such as orthodontics, pregnancy and chronic diseases likediabetes.Diet: Caries is caused by the metabolism of sugars into acid. Foods highin sugar should be avoided. This includes soft drinks, candy and othersweets including processed carbohydrates. These foods increase boththe amount of bacteria present and the amount of acid produced.
Treatment Considerations:Follow-up testing for OraRisk Caries of HIGH RISK is recommended every 3 to 6 monthsEfforts to improve oral hygiene are essential for prevention of caries which include frequent tooth brushing with fluoridated toothpaste, flossing toremove food particles and the regular use of a fluoride rinseMaintaining a diet low in sugary foods will reduce the amount of acid-producing bacteria. Additionally, frequently drinking water will cleanse themouth and lower the amount of oral bacteriaRegular professional dental cleaning to remove plaque is essential. In some cases, the use of dental sealants will lessen the risk of plaque formationMaintaining a neutral pH in the mouth with the use of arginine bicarbonate and calcium carbonate may prevent demineralization of enamelOral health supplements such as xylitol gum, prebiotics, probiotics and potentially, antimicrobials, can reduce or eliminate cariogenic bacteriaEarly repair of small cavities is the best approach to preventing more aggressive or severe tooth decay
Methodology: Genomic DNA is extracted from the submitted sample and tested for 3 species-specific bacteria [Streptococcus mutans, Steptococcus sobrinus, Lactobacillus casei] known tocause dental caries. The bacteria are assayed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Bacterial levels are reported in genome copies per mL of sample. Risk ranges werederived from patient testing: Low risk (0 copies/mL); Moderate risk (1x10^1 to 9.99x10^3 copies/mL); High risk (greater than 9.99x10^3 copies/mL). This test was developed, and itsperformance characteristics determined by OralDNA Labs pursuant to CLIA requirements. This test has not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The FDA hasdetermined that such clearance or approval is not necessary.

MOLECULAR IDENTIFICATION OF CANDIDA SPECIES IN THE OROPHARYNX
Test Results
Candida Species C.albicans
Interpretation:This sample is positive for Candida albicans DNA. This assay cannot rule out infection by Candida dubliniensis. Seecomments.Comments:- Significance: These findings support a diagnosis of oral candidiasis (Oral thrush) caused by C. albicans, the most commonlyimplicated organism in this condition. C. albicans may be present in normal flora. Oral thrush causes creamy white lesions, usually on thetongue or inner cheeks and may spread to the roof of mouth, gums, tonsils, or the back of the throat. Severe symptoms can make eatingpainful and difficult. Left untreated, thrush can spread to the digestive tract and intestines making it difficult to receive adequate nutrition.In immunocompromised individuals, thrush is more likely to spread to the lungs, liver and heart valves. It is not a type of infection that canbe passed on to others.
- Risk: Oral thrush most commonly affects people who wear dentures. People who have difficulties keeping their mouth clean, peoplewith diabetes and those who take steroids are also at a higher risk of developing the condition. Some antibiotics may cause thrush.Certain antibiotics encourage the infection to recur, especially if taken over a long period of time. Very rarely, oral thrush may be one ofthe early signs of HIV.
- Consider: C. albicans accounts for about 50% of oral candidiasis cases, and together, C. albicans, C. tropicalis and C. glabrataaccount for over 80% of cases. Thrush should be treated to keep the infection from spreading. Prescribed antifungal medicines are thestandard treatment for thrush either applied directly to the affected area (topical) or swallowed (oral). Severe infections may require atreatment period longer than 14 days. It is estimated that 1.5-2% of isolates identified as C. albicans are actually C. dubliniensis. C.albicans and C. dubliniensis are closely related Candida species therefore, may respond similarly to first-line treatment.
Methodology: Genomic DNA was extracted and amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using primers specific for a conserved sequences common to the Candidagenus. Concurrently, analysis of DNA integrity and the presence of inhibitory substances was evaluated by the amplification of the human Apolipoprotein B gene. PCRproducts were subjected to restriction endonuclease digestion and automated electrophoresis fluorescence detection. Digital electropherograms and gel images of datawere generated and the specific Candida species was determined by matching the displayed banding pattern to known Candida species restriction fragment patterns. Theanalytical and performance characteristics of this laboratory-developed test (LDT) were determined by OralDNA Labs, A Service of Access Genetics, LLC pursuant toClinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA 88) requirements. It has not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA hasdetermined that such clearance or approval is not a requirement prior to use for clinical purposes.References:
