The results of the test can be used to confirm or deny the relationship.

The cheek swabs we provide inside our kit can be used on children and adults and are absolutely painless. If a cheek swab is not possible, we do also offer discreet specimen options, such as toothbrush or nail clippings for an additional fee. Click on “Order Now” and choose your preferred specimen type.
At PaternityTruth.com we understand just how stressful the wait for the results can be – to make things as easy and as stress-free as possible for you, we provide accurate test results in just 3-5 business days.
It is important to note that home aunt/uncle DNA testing is not as reliable as other types of DNA testing such as a sibling test or a parent-child test. This is because aunts and uncles only share about 25% of their DNA with their nephews or nieces. The results of this type of testing should be interpreted with caution and should not be used as the sole basis for making important life decisions such as inheritance or legal matters.
