DNA saliva testing

At Confident Orthodontics, we strive to stay on the cutting-edge of technology to provide the best outcomes and experiences for our patients. Our latest treatment offering, DNA saliva testing, is a total breakthrough in the medical health industry, and it’s already changing lives.

What is DNA saliva testing?

DNA saliva testing is a simple, non-invasive way to detect a variety of diseases early on. Many of the diseases it can detect are virtually symptom-free in their early stages, so this DNA test is one of the few ways to know and be proactive about your treatment.

With a simple swap of your saliva, we can test your genetic susceptibility to many diseases, and discover if you are at increased risk for periodontal infections. If you are, we can personalise your treatment and dental therapy in our clinic.

What can DNA saliva testing detect?

DNA saliva testing is a simple way to test for early signs of many diseases, including:

Oral HPV
Periodontal disease

Leading the way to a healthy smile

Confident Orthodontics is the very first practice in the UK (and one of only a few providers in Europe) to offer DNA saliva testing. These tests are a massive leap forward in preventative medicine – and they are simple, swift, and non-invasive.

We are thrilled to be able to offer this line of defence to our patients in Taunton and and beyond.
