The NutraHacker Dentistry Report analyzes the single nucleotide polymorphisms that have been shown to have the strongest relation to dental caries (cavities). Understanding these genes can help identify causes for caries and direct decision making. For example a snp that increases dry mouth could be alleviated with sipping water throughout the day. Research has shown that half of the cause of dental cavities is genetic in origin and the other half is related to home care. This means that genetic information in dentistry is vastly underutilized. We recommend taking this report and going over it with your dentist!

An expanded imputed version with more locations analyzed is also included.
