Carotid IMT testing (Carotid Intima Media Testing) CIMT is a measure used to diagnose the extent of carotid atherosclerotic vascular disease. The test measures the thickness of the inner two layers of the carotid artery - the intima and media - and alerts physicians to any thickening when patients are still asymptomatic. Early detection may indicate the need for a more aggressive approach to managing the risk factors associated with vascular disease such as heart attack and stroke.

Oral DNA MyPerioPath & Celsus One: OralDNA saliva testing – screening for pathogenic bacteria in the oral cavity to measure bacterial burden and risk as well as the Celsus One test will be offered to measure 8 genetic gene markers related in inflammatory response.

Inflammation Testing from Cleveland Heart labs: Inflammation can be easily measured with advanced testing that assesses a patient’s inflammatory state and cardiovascular risk. Monitoring their inflammatory status may allow you to catch the beginning, or even treat advanced stages of inflammation, in an effort to reduce their cardiovascular risk.

Heart Smart Screen: Heart Smart Screen A1c & C-reactive protein test. The Heart Smart Screen is used as a diabetic/systemic risk evaluation. A solution for dental professionals. Using a dry blood spot card collection method, dentists have the option of checking hs-CRP and A1C.

Saliva- Check Buffer: Saliva-Check Buffer is a saliva-testing examination tool that identifies, measures and assesses saliva conditions, which helps determine the possible risk of caries. Also tests for hydration, salivary consistency, resting saliva pH, stimulated saliva flow, stimulated saliva pH and saliva buffering capacity.

Blood sugar from glucose monitor: An immediate evaluation of how your body is processing glucose in the blood. A Key factor, since many of us run around pre-diabetic for years without knowing it.

These tests can provide valuable data on your systemic risk and insight into how your oral flora can contribute to cardiovascular risk. We encourage taking all the tests! Learn how to take the knowledge of the oral systemic connections and integrate into everyday practice.
