Do I need a healthcare provider or dentist to interpret the results?
expand_more
Our results are designed to be easy to understand, with clear insights and simple home-care recommendations you can start using right away. That said, every mouth is unique, so we do encourage you to share your results with your dentist or healthcare provider. They can help you create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your oral microbiome and overall health.
How long do I have to send the sample back, and how quickly will I receive results?
expand_more
Because our samples don’t use preservatives, we need to receive them at the lab within 14 days of collection. Once your sample arrives, our team gets to work right away. You’ll typically receive your results within about 2 weeks from the time you send your sample back, and we’ll notify you as soon as they’re ready.
Now that I have my results, what are the next steps?
expand_more
After reviewing your results, the best next step is to use the insights to guide meaningful improvements in your oral wellness routine. We encourage you to take action by enhancing your at-home oral care, monitoring your progress over time, and working with your healthcare provider to develop a personalized oral care plan that fits your needs.
It is the responsibility of the person who was tested to arrange with their health care provider for consultation and interpretation of test results.
Your results are a starting point—partnering with a professional ensures you receive guidance that is tailored, accurate, and aligned with your broader health goals.
What happens to my sample after testing, and do you keep my DNA?
expand_more
Our test looks only at the bacterial DNA in your sample—not your human DNA. Once your sample is analyzed for those specific bacteria, it isn’t stored or used for anything else. Your personal DNA is never collected, saved, or examined in any way.
OraPath testing is conducted by IMMYLabs, which retains protected health information and bacterial DNA results in compliance with applicable regulations.
What if I have difficulty producing enough saliva for my sample?
expand_more
If you’re having trouble producing enough saliva, a little stimulation can make the process easier. Try gently massaging your salivary glands using light pressure along your cheeks and under your jaw. Sweep your fingers forward toward your mouth for one to two minutes—this simple technique can help encourage saliva flow for a smoother collection.
What should I do to prepare before collecting my saliva sample?
expand_more
Our test uses a simple straight saliva sample—no preservatives or additives—so you get a clean, accurate look at your oral bacteria. The best part? You can collect your sample anytime. There are no special steps to take beforehand and nothing you need to avoid. Eating, drinking, brushing, or smoking won’t impact your results, making the process quick, easy, and stress-free.
