Dental pH Testing

Assess Your Mouth’s Acidity to Protect Your Smile

Your mouth’s pH is a key indicator of your cavity risk and overall oral health. With a simple, painless chairside test—using a saliva strip or digital pH meter—Dr. Golden can measure how acidic or alkaline your saliva and plaque are.

Acidic conditions (low pH) can weaken enamel, feed cavity-causing bacteria, and increase your risk for sensitivity and decay. Testing allows for early intervention, helping Dr. Golden personalize your care with diet changes, remineralizing products, or lifestyle adjustments that shift your oral environment toward healing.
