Service Providers for Oral Lassion Scrapping for Gram Stain
This test helps diagnose bacterial infections in oral lesions by identifying the type of bacteria present. Preparation involves cleaning the area around the lesion. During the test, a healthcare provider gently scrapes the lesion to collect a sample. Risks are minimal, with slight discomfort or mild bleeding possible. After the test, no special care is required. Results show bacterial presence and classify them as Gram-positive or Gram-negative, aiding in treatment selection. Conditions like oral hygiene, smoking, or prior antibiotic use may influence the test's outcome or accuracy.
