The bacteria in your mouth don’t stay there, they’re swallowed daily and can influence gut balance, inflammation, and overall wellness.
An imbalanced oral microbiome can contribute to digestive issues, immune stress, and chronic inflammation throughout the body. When harmful bacteria are present in the mouth, they can disrupt the gut microbiome and interfere with your body’s ability to heal and regulate itself.
That’s why we take a whole-body approach to dental care. With saliva testing, we’re able to identify specific bacteria in your mouth and better understand how they may be connected to symptoms you’re experiencing elsewhere in your body.
📅 Ask us about saliva testing at your next hygiene visit or message us to learn how we can support your wellness journey from the inside out.
