Oral Genome has partnered with Henry Schein to distribute its point-of-care saliva testing kits to dental and medical practices across the United States.
Oral Genome announced a strategic partnership with Henry Schein to bring its saliva testing technology to dental and medical practices nationwide. The collaboration aims to integrate point-of-care testing into more offices to support the connection between oral and systemic health.
Saliva Testing in 15 Minutes
Oral Genomeโs saliva test kits are performed chairside and reportedly deliver results in 15 minutes. The accompanying software analyzes biomarkers in saliva, providing a real-time look at oral and overall health.
