Before You Smooch · Couples Test

Who are you
really kissing?

Some oral bacteria are transmissible — and linked to fertility, pregnancy outcomes, and systemic health.

The Truth

Kissing isn't just chemistry.

Oral bacteria can be transferred through kissing — including bacteria associated with inflammation, gum disease, and pregnancy complications.

Research shows couples share up to 80 million bacteria in a single kiss. Some of these microbes persist below the gumline and are not eliminated by brushing or flossing.

Most people have no idea what they're carrying — or sharing.
