Easy At-Home Test Reveals Root Causes of Tooth Decay, Gum Disease, and Bad Breath

Finding Genius Podcast

Despite impeccable oral hygiene practices, some of us can’t seem to avoid getting cavities, while others who could brush and floss a little more never develop any.

It seems backwards, but there might be a good answer for it…one that promises better preventive oral health for all.

Tune in to discover:

  • About how many species of bacteria are living in your mouth at any one time
  • Clinical and behavioral risk factors for poor oral health
  • How certain pre-existing medical conditions could predispose someone to tooth decay

Rather than making that dreaded visit to the dentist and hearing that there’s more work to be done, Danny Grannick, CEO & Co-Founder of Bristle, proposes a new alternative: taking a simple at-home oral microbiome test that provides a clear and easy-to-understand picture of your oral health.

By analyzing tons of complex genomic data and boiling it down to a few simple scores, consumers can better understand their oral health and receive personalized recommendations for dealing with and/or preventing cavities, gum disease, and bad breath.

It’s an exciting new product that has the potential to revolutionize oral healthcare as we know it—and all it takes is a small saliva sample.
