1 Screening
Susceptibility bacterial screening is now available for dentistry. The CariScreen test takes just 30 seconds and is painless. Designed to form part of your regular dental appointment, dentists and oral healthcare professionals can now assess the bacterial infection that causes tooth decay. Charting the test results is an effective way to identify any change in your risk.

2 Assessment
Understanding risk factors and how they can influence your susceptibility to tooth decay and cavities is an important part of your dental care. Lifestyles change many times thoughout our lives, as does our risk of new decay, so its important that your dentist or oral healthcare professional conducts regular "caries risk assessments". An assessment reviews known risk factors and how they may impact on your dental health. Individuals who present with one or more risk factors can benefit by increasing their protective factors. It's all about changing the balance in favour of health.
