Microbiota DNA Report

Oral microbiota

 Get to know the bacteria in your mouth.

The mouth is by far the part of the body most exposed to pathogens and changes. Discover all the bacteria living in your mouth with our microbiota test. We analyze hundreds of bacteria to detect imbalances and prevent pathologies. This balance between different types of bacteria is essential, as it is directly related to oral diseases and indirectly to ailments in other parts of the body. Gain valuable information about your health with our microbiome analysis kit and predict different conditions successfully.

The value of microbiota analysis
Unlike genetics, whose variation over a lifetime is virtually zero, microbiota constantly evolves and changes. Therefore, the results of this report will also vary depending on when it is performed. However, this is not worth one iota of value. It makes all the sense in the world to perform a microbiome test periodically to check the evolution of certain aspects of our health and confirm the impact of our changing habits; in the same way that we perform a blood test or other diagnostic tests, the results of which are totally valid.

At 24Genetics, we always recommend sharing the microbiota and DNA test report with your referring physician before making drastic lifestyle changes. In addition, these tests are not a substitute for other diagnostic tests, such as dental consultations.

Scientific advances and microbiota testing
Another factor that can affect the long-term results of microbiota testing is the advancement of scientific research. New correlations between oral microbiota and different aspects of health are continually being identified, which can change the results and conclusions of studies.

At 24Genetics, we make a great effort to apply new consolidated scientific findings to our reports. Our microbiota test is based on a metagenomic analysis of more than 100,000 sequences of your saliva, performed with a complex proprietary algorithm.

Our goal is to provide you with complete and contrasted information about your general health to get to know you in depth with questions that, without a test, could be overlooked.
