Male
18 yrs old
Smoked approx. 15 hrs before test, about an 1/8 of nugs with a few friends that evening before the test
I also smoked cigarettes and cigars in combo
I brushed my teeth normally and rinsed with mouth wash right before bed
I brushed my teeth normally and rinsed with mouth wash when i woke up
I brushed my teeth normally and rinsed with mouth wash after work, right before school.
I went to school and was randomly choosen to take a drug test


Talk about a ****ty feeling in the pit of my stomach when i had to make the long walk to the lounge to get the test.
My test was done by Lab One.
I put the swab in between my gums on the side of my mouth, trying to avoid saliva as much as possible, sucking in threw my mouth and out my nose, over and over until it was time to remove the swab. If i would have failed i would have been suspended from college and would have had to take counciling and constant drug tests

But its been exactly 2 weeks and i have not heard that i failed it, and normally people who fail it are kicked out after a few days, so im gonna say im in the clear. Talk about being prepaired for the worst, and in my case it payed off. I will continue to use Listerine

Hope that helps you people

HIGH!
I've already taken the poll, but here are the specifics of my first ever saliva test:

I am female 42 yrs old.
I hadn't smoked in approximately 48+ hrs.
I was tested for probation purposes.

I came in expecting to do my very first UA...fully prepared to substitute my urine. (I will post my idea for that in the appropriate location, if you'd like?)

The common denominators I see in this poll are, that oral hygiene and abstaining from smoking for 24-72 hrs is essential in passing a saliva test!

I brushed my teeth as I normally do. I didn't use any mouthwash nor did I floss. (heh) Don't tell my dentist!
I use Arm & Hammer Advance White Toothpaste, at least once a day.
I didn't eat or drink anything after I brushed.
I smoked cigarettes like mad on the way to the probation place! (Nerves were starting to get to me, worrying about my piss test!)

The probation person changed directions on me! He's not an officer, but a "Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor". (Woooo)
He decided that I needed to take a saliva test, due to too many females were getting away with fooling the bladder cops...(yes!)

I personally think that statement was a bit discriminatory, but I don't like this guy, or anything he has to say. I brought a tape recorder with me, so I could catch his reaction when I told him to stop staring at my breasts! This guy had given me the creeps on previous visits by talking to my breasts when he should have been talking to my face! But that's a different story...

Today, I took my first saliva test and PASSED! After a very long and bitter 5 minutes or so, to wet the sponge-on-a-stick, I waited yet another very long and scary five minutes to see the results. I had already told myself in my mind that I was ****ED, and if it came up positive for THC, I would make all kinds of excuses. Like, I am overweight! It takes longer to detox in someone who is, I take huge amounts of Ibuprofen, etc...

To make a very long story shorter, I passed all 6 panels except for Meth...
I take prescription diet drugs to lose weight, and had the presence of mind to bring them with me! Luckily, he determined that Ephedrine was the drug that made me test positive for Meth.
I could have told him that, but didn't want to seem too knowledgeable...

So my conclusion is that brushing your teeth is even more important than your mother or dentist EVER told you, and taking a few days off of smoking only makes the next high, that much sweeter!
I am still going to check out a home saliva test kit, and the Altoid theory. I may even check out the various mouthwashes that are supposedly an aid in passing a test.
Whatever the results, I will share them with you, my fellow stoners! :spark:

grillmeats... good idea!

I've been gettin' swabbed for several months now, since I'm on probation for pot...
and I still smoke almost every day... and I've NEVER failed a swab test yet.

My method is similar to yours...

1. I normally don't smoke for 48 hours prior to my test (every 2 weeks now, was weekly for the 1st. 10 weeks) but I have screwed up and smoked the night before.

2. I brush the night before but not that morning... I want a little plaque on my teeth because the sugar from the candy or mint I have in my mouth (right up until I walk into the office for the test) sticks to slightly "dirty" teeth more so than sparkling clean ones. And THAT I believe is the key... having sugar (dissolved sugar) in your mouth in a sufficient quantity to coat the swab... thus making it a sort of M&M and evidently impervious to testing (at least at the cop shop here in OhighO).

What really made me believe my theory was correct was when I went in last week and they had big signs stating that gum, candy, mints, etc. were contraband in the probation dept. and they even looked in your mouth before they tested ya!

That's been my experience so far...

Ok' I smoked on Superbowl Sunday and then not again until I did one hit on Tuesday morning. Tuesday afternoon I get a call for an interview on Wednesday morning.. I thought it would only be an interview, but still brushed really good and used mouthwash. On the way there I stopped and got some altoids and ate about eight of them. Got to the place about 11:30am and filled out some paper work. I asked to use the bathroom, and washed out my mouth with water in there. I interviewed with two people and didn't do the drug test until about 1:15pm. Somehow, I passed and I start work on Monday.. Thanks for all the advice...

I passed! Start work tomorrow......

Okay, so I got a call from Costco on Monday the 6th at about 4PM just after I smoked a J, they wanted to interview me on Wed the 8th. I was like Okay this company most definitely drug tests. I quit smoking. I show up on Wednesday but before I went into the store I saw a kid pushing carts so I asked him do they pee test and he said "no they test your spit". I couldn't have been happier since I had just read GrillMeats procedure on handling the saliva test. I had the first and second interview, left went home, and three hours later get a call back to come in on Thursday for a "3rd" interview. I was like okay this has to mean they want to do the drug test. So this morning I brushed and used mouthwash and the whole way to the store I sucked on two Altoids at a time. When I got to the parking lot I used the mouthwash one more time and popped in two more mints. It only took about 15min before they had me use the OralStat kit (I had just finished my last mint before I put the swab in my mouth). I was real nervous while I waited because the other prospective employee's tests were working faster than mine (not enough spit maybe?). Anyways it eventually came back NEGATIVE! I’ am so damn happy, thanks GrillMeats.

Hello all first post here..anyway lets get to the point.

i have been a "light" smoker now for about 8 months. i usually will share a bowl or doobie amongst friends on the weekend. i am on probation for a marijuana related offence so i found that this method has always kept my urine screens clean. this last week on thursday i decided to get a bag for the first time in nearly 2 years, thinking that i was done with urine testing. from thursday - sunday i went crazy..well crazy for me anyway, smoking at least 2 times per day. i wake up this morning...drink a gallon of water an hour before i go in to see ms. PO (just in case) and i get there to find out they have just switched to this "new" thing called saliva testing. (small town..u get the idea) so first thing i do is check the brand name for my research. its an Iscreen 6 panel. so i stick the thing in my mouth for 3 minutes...she sticks it in the blue cap and it shows negative lines on the panel and she sends me on my way....so..no mints...no preparating...just didnt smoke for around 72-82 hours beforehand

The Ratio of passing and failing is Too high. Unlike us :spark: , that's bad. I want to have a 10 to 1 ratio of passing. Not a 10 to 3. If you want to pass search, Google, Yahoo, MJ.com, and you will receive (find) your answer
