Oral health is crucial for the entire body. It is not enough to just brush your teeth regularly – modern genetic tests provide real certainty by revealing risks before the first symptoms appear. At GHC Genetics, we offer three specialized tests that focus on different areas of dental care and help tailor prevention measures.
DentalScan – A test focused on periodontitis, it detects paropathogenic bacteria and congenital susceptibility to gum disease. It allows dentists to choose the right course of action in time and prevent complications.
DentinoScan – A test for children that detects cariogenic bacteria and the risk of tooth decay. It helps prevent problems and set up the right care from the very first teeth.
Oral microbiome – A comprehensive examination of oral microflora that shows the effect of bacteria on teeth, gums, and overall health. It detects the causes of bad breath, frequent inflammation, and the risk of lifestyle diseases.
These tests form the modern basis of preventive dental care and help protect a healthy smile and overall health from childhood to adulthood.
Aggressive pro-inflammatory bacteria facilitate the development of gum inflammation, which initially manifests itself as bleeding when brushing teeth or biting into harder foods (e.g., apples). If left untreated, it can lead to periodontitis and tooth loss.
The discovery of aggressive "paropathogenic" bacteria will help speed up the treatment of periodontitis, preventing tooth loss and the transfer of bacterial toxins into the bloodstream and distant organs.
Are you constantly developing new cavities? Your oral bacteria may be producing excessive amounts of acids that damage tooth enamel, or a resistant biofilm that resists regular tooth brushing.
An overgrowth of pro-inflammatory or pathogenic bacteria irritates the cells of the mucous membrane and causes inflammation. By restoring the balance of your oral microbiota, you will no longer suffer from inflammation.
Are you bothered by bad breath? The cause may be reflux or inflammatory disease in the digestive tract, but it could also be an overgrowth of oral bacteria that produce sulfur compounds that cause odor.
Bacteria in the mouth directly affect the oral mucosa. If this is damaged, harmful substances from the external environment or pro-inflammatory substances can enter the body, increasing the risk of chronic inflammation and lifestyle diseases.
Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of the supporting structure for the teeth called the periodontium. The cause is a combination of the presence of certain strains of bacteria in dental plaque and the immunological or genetic predisposition of the patient. The bacterial and genetic examination DentalScan® detects both of the above-mentioned risk factors for periodontitis, which can significantly contribute to early diagnosis, the selection of optimal treatment or the adoption of appropriate preventive measures.
Prevention of tooth decay in children
Tooth decay is one of the most common chronic diseases of childhood. DentinoScan can detect the presence of aggressive cariogenic bacteria even in the youngest patients and provides an objective assessment of the risk of tooth decay. The test is simple, quick, and allows you to set up an individual preventive regimen even before the first lesions appear.
A comprehensive view of oral health
The oral microbiome is a complex community of bacteria whose balance is crucial for the health of teeth, gums, and the entire body. Imbalance can be linked to the development of tooth decay, periodontal inflammation, and systemic diseases. Our analysis reveals the composition of friendly and pathogenic bacteria and provides specific recommendations for promoting healthy microbiota and preventing harmful bacteria.

GHC Genetics has been part of the GHC Healthcare Worldnet group for over 17 years.
As one of the first, we made genetic analyses accessible to the general public.
Our own medical and laboratory team is equipped with the best facilities.
The protection of your privacy and the security of your data are among our top priorities. The analysis and evaluation of the obtained sample is performed anonymously based on a unique identifier assigned to it. In accordance with applicable legislation, DNA samples are destroyed in the prescribed manner after genetic laboratory testing has been performed.
