How to change the design DESeqDataSet to calculate log2foldChange in different way?

How to change the design DESeqDataSet to calculate log2foldChange in different way? for example the log fold change condition: Normal vs Mutated, How to make it Mutated vs Normal?

countdata2<- subset(countdata, select=c("WM793_rep1","WM793_rep2","NHEM_rep1", "NHEM_rep2"))

coldata2<data.frame("condition"=as.factor(c(rep("Mutated",2),rep("Normal",2))),row.names=colnames(countdata2))

dds2 <- DESeqDataSetFromMatrix(countData = countdata2, colData =coldata2,design = ~condition )

dds2 <- DESeq(dds2)

Thanks in advance

design deseqdatasetfrommatrix condition deseq2

The answer is to add contrast parameter and add the desired ordering :

results(dds3,contrast = c("condition","Mutated","Normal"))
