Propensity Test

DNA CONNEXIONS PROPENSITY TEST

The DNA ConneXions Propensity Test identifies 19 of the most common bacterial species not only involved in Periodontal Disease, but also those involved in chronic conditions. These systemic health issues include various types of cancers (colorectal, pancreatic, prostate, and breast cancer), cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cognitive disorders, respiratory issues, and pregnancy-related complications and more.

Key Features:

• Identifies 19 Bacteria: Detects microbes involved in Periodontal Disease and other chronic conditions
• Health Impact: Provides insights into how these bacteria can affect overall health, potentially contributing to cancers, cardiovascular problems, and other systemic diseases
• Advanced Technology: Utilizes PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) to identify microbial DNA in oral samples with high sensitivity and specificity
• Convenient Sampling: Utilizes the Super Floss method for easy and non-invasive sample collection at home

How It Works: The test involves using dental Super Floss to collect an oral sample. This sample is then analyzed using PCR technology to detect the presence of 19 bacterial species. These bacteria are often found in conjunction within periodontal pockets and can systemically spread to other parts of the body, contributing to various chronic conditions.

Benefits:

• Direct DNA Detection: 19 bacterial microbes involved in Periodontal Disease and other chronic conditions on a species-specific level
• Convenient Sampling Method: Easy, non-invasive, convenient, at-home Super Floss sampling method
• Preventive Health: Helps you take proactive steps to manage your health by understanding your susceptibility to various chronic diseases

The DNA ConneXions Propensity Test offers a reliable way to monitor your health and identify potential bacterial influences on chronic conditions, helping you make informed decisions about your health care.

Sampling Method: Super Floss, Other Oral Sample Types On Approval* (*Please contact us to inquire about other sampling method options).
