Clinical Overview
This qualitative Real-Time RT‑qPCR test directly detects active ribosomal RNA (rRNA) from Porphyromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola, Tannerella forsythia, and Fusobacterium nucleatum in a single saliva or subgingival plaque sample. By targeting RNA, it identifies live, metabolically active pathogens responsible for progressive periodontitis — unlike DNA tests that may flag dead bacteria, ensuring a clinically actionable treatment window.
يستهدف هذا التحليل النوعي الحمض النووي الريبي الحي للبكتيريا اللثوية الأربعة الأكثر عدوانية، مما يؤكد وجود عدوى نشطة تتطلب تدخلاً علاجياً فورياً.
| Feature | Our RNA Test (ULAB) | Closest Alternative (DNA PCR / Culture) |
|---|---|---|
| Target Molecule | Ribosomal RNA (live bacteria) | DNA (dead or alive) / Colony Growth |

| Turnaround Time | Email: 48h / Phone: 36h | Often 72h – 7 days |
| Clinical Actionability | Immediate; detects active infection only | May over‑call past/treated cases |
| Price | 1300 AED | Varies; often 900‑1500 AED |
Expert Physician Note & Safety Protocol
"As a clinician, I see how periodontal infection silently fuels systemic inflammation. This RNA test gives us the most accurate snapshot of active microbial threat. However, it does not replace a full dental examination; always correlate findings with your dentist’s assessment and never stop prescribed antibiotics or oral care without consulting your doctor."
— Dr. Prabhakar Reddy, DHA License No. 61713011
⚠ Medication Warning: Do not discontinue any prescribed medication (including antibiotics, anticoagulants, or immunosuppressants) without explicit direction from your treating physician. The test result is one piece of a comprehensive diagnostic picture.
Patient Safety Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- This test is not for self-diagnosis of cancer, systemic disease, or acute dental abscess.
- Exclusion: patients with active oral bleeding that cannot be controlled, severe facial trauma, or known allergy to collection materials.
- 🚨 ER Red Flags: If you experience sudden facial swelling, difficulty breathing/swallowing, or fever >38.5°C alongside bleeding gums, seek emergency care immediately — do not wait for test results.
- Home collection is contraindicated in hemodynamically unstable patients.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this RNA test differ from standard periodontal DNA tests?
Snippet: This RNA test detects live P. gingivalis, T. denticola, T. forsythia, F. nucleatum causing active periodontitis.
DNA-based tests cannot distinguish live from dead bacteria; RNA rapidly degrades after cell death, so a positive RNA result confirms a current, ongoing infection that warrants targeted antibiotic therapy. Results are delivered within 36–48 hours, enabling faster clinical decisions.

2. How is the home saliva collection performed and is it safe?
Snippet: Our ISO-certified phlebotomist collects a painless saliva sample at your doorstep using sterile, single-use equipment.
The collector will arrive with full PPE and a temperature-maintained cold chain transport kit. You simply provide a small sample of saliva or, if needed, a gentle swab from the gum line. The entire procedure is non-invasive, takes under 3 minutes, and is safe for all ages (minors require guardian consent per UAE CDS Law 2026).

3. What does a positive result mean and what are the immediate next steps?
Snippet: Positive indicates live periodontal infection; see a periodontist immediately for targeted antibiotic and treatment plan.
A positive result for any of the four pathogens means metabolically active bacteria are present, requiring prompt periodontal therapy. Your DHA-licensed general physician or periodontist will use the sensitivity profile to prescribe an appropriate antibiotic regimen alongside mechanical debridement. Do not self-medicate; incorrect antibiotic selection can worsen resistance.
