WHAT IT IS
The Dental Implant Test is a saliva-based screening that detects the eight microbial species most strongly linked to peri-implant disease and implant failure. Most peri-implantitis is silent until it's not. This test catches the microbial drivers before symptoms appear.
WHY THIS MATTERS
Nearly half of all dental implants show signs of inflammation, often without visible symptoms. Peri-implantitis is the leading cause of implant failure, and infection is the most preventable cause. The bacteria that drive it are detectable in saliva long before clinical symptoms emerge.
WHAT IT SCREENS FOR
8 high-risk pathogens associated with peri-implantitis:
- Red Complex: Porphyromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola, Tannerella forsythia
- Orange Complex: Prevotella intermedia, Fusobacterium nucleatum, Fusobacterium animalis
- Yeast: Candida albicans
- Peri-implantitis risk: Pseudomonas aeruginosa (an aggressive, often-overlooked bacterium that amplifies implant inflammation)
WHO THIS IS FOR
- You have one or more dental implants
- You're planning future implant placement and want a baseline reading
- You've had previous implant complications or revisions
- Your dentist has flagged inflammation around an implant site
HOW IT WORKS
1. Order your kit. It ships within 2 business days.
2. Collect your saliva sample at home. Painless, less than 30 seconds.
3. Drop the prepaid mailer in any UPS location.
4. Receive your personalized report and a 30-minute walkthrough with our clinical team in about 2 weeks.
INCLUDED
- Saliva collection kit and prepaid return mailer
- Real-time PCR analysis at a CLIA-certified, CAP-accredited laboratory
- Clinician-written report with personalized interpretation focused on your implant health
- 30-minute walkthrough with our clinical team
