Periodontal canal microflora culture without antibiotic sensitivity determination
Detects microorganisms in periodontal canal and assesses microflora composition. Helps diagnose bacterial tooth and surrounding tissue infections.
Deviation mechanism: With tooth/gum microflora disruption, opportunistic bacteria multiply → inflammation. Culture detects microorganism presence and composition.
Recommended for: tooth and gum infection symptom patients; chronic/recurrent inflammation; treatment and therapy efficacy monitoring.
Periodontal canal content collected with sterile instrument
Avoid antibiotics 48-72 hours before (by physician agreement)
Collect in sterile conditions and deliver quickly
Tooth pain or inflammation; periodontitis, periodontal inflammation; suspected root canal infection; recurrent post-treatment inflammatory processes.
Microorganisms detected — species and quantity indicated.
Not detected — pathogenic organism growth not found.
Physician makes final assessment.
Note: Sensitivity testing only when clinically significant organism detected.
Recommended physicians: Dentist; General Practitioner; Pediatric dentist (children).
