Oral Health 101

Good health starts with a healthy mouth

Your oral microbiome is the foundation of your oral health, but it doesn’t stop there.

Studies have connected oral bacteria to over 50+ systemic diseases, including heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and cancer. Our mission? To help you take charge of your health, starting with your mouth.

“ If you make one investment in your health this entire year, let this be it.

The mouth is the gateway to your body, and oral bacteria have been associated with a higher risk for systemic conditions, including Alzheimer’s, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and poor pregnancy outcomes.

You can’t be healthy without a healthy mouth. And what you don’t measure, you cannot manage.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Bristle test look for?

Bristle profiles your complete oral microbiome - the makeup of 800+ bacteria and fungi in your mouth. Our test is the most comprehensive available and identifies all microbes present in your oral microbiome.

Some of these species are beneficial to our health, while others are harmful and can cause conditions like halitosis, tooth decay, gum inflammation, and more. By analyzing the identity and relative abundance of microbes in your saliva, Bristle detects the root cause of oral symptoms and connections to other chronic conditions. We also provide scientifically-backed product, diet, and lifestyle recommendations based on your unique oral microbiome.

How many microbes does Bristle detect?

We offer the most advanced and comprehensive oral microbiome test available, analyzing all 800+ species of bacteria and fungi found in the mouth. On average we identify 100+ bacterial species per sample.
