A comprehensive review published in Cureus three years ago concluded that infection is the most frequent and preventable cause of dental implant failure. SimplyTest Implant is engineered to detect eight high-risk pathogens, which include Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), Treponema denticola (Td), Tannerella forsythia (Tf), Prevotella intermedia (Pi), Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn), Fusobacterium animalis (Fa), Candida albicans (Ca) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa). These organisms are recognized contributors to inflammation, tissue degradation, and systemic immune response, often without visible early symptoms.
“Microbial infections are a major cause of implant-related complications,” SimplyTest Founder/Scientific Advisory Board Chair Joel Peek, Ph.D., said. “With SimplyTest Oral Health-IMPLANT, clinicians now have a fast, noninvasive way to identify the microbial risks before failure occurs. It’s another step forward in our mission to elevate patient care through precision-based oral health solutions.”
