Complete Health Dentistry of Portland is now offering two molecular tests that provide supplemental information about a patients periodontal, or gum, condition. This information can be used to develop patient-specific treatment plans for periodontal disease therapy and to help establish the therapy endpoint.
These two salivary diagnostic tests are MyPerioPath and MyPerioID. Specifically, the MyPerioPath test measures the levels of eleven different species of bacteria known to trigger periodontal disease. In addition to identifying the specific bacteria, the test provides a bacterial-related risk of disease progression and guide in tailoring an individualized treatment plan for you.
Dr. Dowsett is pleased to be one of the first dental practices in the Portland area to utilize these two salivary diagnostic tests, enhancing his ability to provide the finest care.
