In Vitro Test for pH & Saliva Buffering Capacity
Saliva Check Buffer kit is divided into 5 different steps, the first 3 steps involving unstimulated saliva while the last 2 steps involve the stimulated saliva.
As the functions and characteristics of these two forms of saliva are different, by evaluating both, the test results will become very useful diagnostic and powerful communication tools to the patients.
Saliva Check Buffer kit Checks both the flow rate, viscosity and consistency of non-stimulated saliva and the pH of the patient's resting saliva.
This will provide information about how the patient's lifestyle may be consequently affecting their oral health and will determine whether acid levels may be dangerously high, hence possibly causing erosion or caries problems
Testing can be carried out as part of a routine examination and the results explained to the patient as part of the discussion about prevention and treatment
