Salivary Bacterial Testing at Austin Elite Smiles
We test so we don’t guess.
At Austin Elite Smiles, we believe your care should be personalized, precise, and proactive, not one-size-fits-all.

advanced salivary bacterial testing—a simple, non-invasive way to understand exactly what’s happening in your mouth so we can treat you more effectively.

Why a Saliva Test?
During your exam, we can see:
- Inflammation
- Bleeding
- Bone loss
- Gum recession
But what we can’t see is:
- Which bacteria are causing it
- How aggressive those bacteria are
- Your individual risk for disease progression
This testing fills in that missing piece.
Instead of treating based on what’s common, we treat based on
what’s actually present in your mouth.
Why Invisalign®?

Are you fed up with feeling self-conscious about your smile? Having a hard time keep your teeth clean? Seeking a more discreet option for straightening your teeth? If so, Invisalign® might be just what you need. These aligners consist of durable plastic trays that gently guide your teeth into alignment. The greatest advantage? Invisalign® aligners are virtually invisible, thanks to their clear and slim design. Additionally, they're comfortable and removable, enabling you to eat and brush your teeth without any hassle. With Invisalign®, you can maintain your regular routine and witness your teeth gradually transform right before your eyes.
What Is Salivary Bacterial Testing?
This is a quick saliva test that analyzes your oral microbiome—the bacteria living in your mouth and key risk factors that influence your oral health.
- No needles
- No discomfort
- Collected easily during your visit
Your results provide insight into:
- Harmful periodontal bacteria
- Your level of risk for gum disease progression
- Inflammatory response patterns
- Presence of certain viral markers, including
HPV-related risk factors

Your First Visit
Before beginning your Invisalign® journey, it's essential to undergo a thorough dental examination to rule out any underlying issues such as gum disease, jaw concerns, or active tooth decay. Assuming everything checks out, Austin Elite Smiles will proceed by taking scans of your teeth, which are then used to generate precise digital 3D models of your mouth. Invisalign® labs utilize these models to meticulously map out your tooth movement and fabricate your custom alignment trays through digital printing.
