You don't have to build a new practice.

You have to hand your patient a better answer.

Wellness dentistry has always been about treating the person, not the tooth. Genetic testing is the simplest way to start, and your patients do most of the work.

Email contactus@illuminategenetics.com to create your own account and start truly individualized care for your patients.

A genetic test that turns into a plan your patient can actually follow.

One cheek swab. Your patient gets an 18-month at home plan for their oral and overall health. You get a short brief on what matters chairside. No new training, equipment, or services required.

"[My Illuminate Genetics reports] replaced my health guesswork with a clear, data-driven roadmap. [They] expertly translated my results into a realistic, personalized wellness plan tailored to my unique needs. I now feel more empowered and proactive about my long-term health than ever before!"

Why patients respond differently to the same care

Same instructions, same protocol, different results. That’s rarely a lack of effort.  It’s biology.

Genetics helps explain:

Why inflammation flares in one patient and resolves quietly in another
Why some patients heal slowly, bleed, or bruise after routine procedures
Why decay returns despite excellent hygiene
Why anesthetic tolerance, dry mouth, and recession vary so widely

Until now, the honest answer was “some people are just built differently.” Now you can show them exactly how and what to do about it.

What's in it for your practice

Case acceptance rises when the plan is clearly about this patient
Compliance improves because the patient finally understands the why
Recall intervals become objective, a three-month interval reads as personalized care, not upselling, once a patient can see their own risk pathways
Clearly differentiated offering on something no nearby practice can copy quickly

What you receive

Three documents. But you only need the first few pages of the Clinical Oral Genetics Brief.

For the patient

Patient Genetic Blueprint

Plain language, sequenced, specific: what to eat, change, and take. This is the one that does the work.

For you

Clinical Oral Genetics Brief

You. The front pages condense everything into what to act on chairside. A deeper science section follows, entirely optional.

For your team

Provider Step-by-Step Plan

Your team. Sequences the plan across the year so hygiene knows what to reinforce at each visit.

Written for all ages, under-18 documents address the parent and adapt to the child’s dental stage.


“This test was very comprehensive [with] results in a way that I could understand. [I feel] validated and hopeful and it gave me lots of helpful next steps to take in my health journey. I have been looking for answers and I’m so glad that I did this!”
- From a patient

What it asks of you: nothing new

If your practice offers additional therapies, we build them into the plan. If it doesn't, the plan is complete without them.

How it works

You order through your practice account, after approval.

The kit ships directly to your patient: no inventory, no chairside collection.

We interpret the results and build the full document set.

Your documents arrive in your secure portal. Review a short brief, hand over the plan.

We never contact your patient directly. You own the relationship from start to finish.

What it looked like for one patient

She was following her biological dentist’s protocol exactly. Her saliva testing kept coming back the same, visit after visit, but nothing moved.

Her genetics report showed why her biology was working against the protocol. Once she followed recommendations built from her own genetics, her next test showed a significant shift into the healthy range.

Effort was never the problem. She was following good advice that wasn’t written for her.


“When someone can finally see why their body responds the way it does, they commit to the plan and follow through. I built this for dentists because I watched it work, over and over, in my own practice.”

Frequently asked questions

Is this too advanced if I'm new to biological dentistry?

No, many practices use it as their entry point. The report supplies the expertise; you don't need to.

No. The front of your brief is a condensed action list in the language you already use. The science behind it is optional reading.

No. Recommendations are generic and unbranded, so patients source them wherever they choose.

Collection happens at home. The handoff fits an existing appointment and is often delegated to hygiene.

You're using wellness and nutrition information to guide oral health care, no diagnosis or prescribing required.

It won't appear. Plans are built only from the services you tell us you provide.

It generally takes 3 days for your patient to receive the at-home test kit.  It is shipped to the lab in a pre-paid envelope and takes about a month for the results to come in and the report to be delivered to your inbox for your records and to share with your patient.

No, you pay us once you have charged the patient.  You can have the option to stock testing kits to give directly to your patients, but it is not required.

Pricing is shared during account setup.
