The Partnership Is to Expand Support of Dental-Medical Integration with Point-of-Care Saliva Testing
Oral Genome, a leading innovator in salivary testing, today announced a strategic partnership with Henry Schein, the world’s largest provider of health care solutions to office-based dental and medical practitioners. This collaboration aims to bring Oral Genome’s cutting-edge point-of-care saliva testing to dental and medical practices nationwide, advancing the integration of oral and systemic health care.
Oral Genome’s saliva test kits are run at the point of care, and deliver results in 15 minutes. By partnering with Henry Schein’s expansive network, this technology will empower dental professionals to oral and systemic health issues chairside, fostering early and stronger patient-provider relationships.
“We’re thrilled to join forces with Henry Schein to support providers bridging the gap between dental and medical care,” said Dr. Tina Saw, CEO of Oral Genome. “Our point-of-care testing equips practitioners with actionable insights, transforming routine visits into opportunities for whole-health advocacy.”
“Henry Schein is committed to bringing innovative solutions that enhance patient outcomes to our customers,” said Dirk Benson, President of Henry Schein’s U.S. Distribution Group. “Expanded point of care testing offerings align with our mission to advance prevention and wellness through systemic health models, and Oral Genome offers dentists and physicians a powerful tool to elevate care.”
The partnership will roll out through Henry Schein’s distribution channels, targeting dental practices, community health clinics, and medical offices seeking new preventive care techniques. This initiative underscores both companies’ dedication to advancing health care through technology and collaboration.
