What is Guided Biofilm Therapy?

Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) is a dental hygiene technique that is designed to remove biofilm, or plaque, from the teeth and gums using an air-polishing device. The technique involves using a fine powder that is propelled by a stream of air to gently remove the biofilm from the surface of the teeth. The process is minimally invasive and is designed to be more comfortable for patients than traditional scaling and root planing procedures.

The GBT technique was developed by Swiss dental company EMS and is rapidly gaining popularity worldwide. The technique is highly effective at removing biofilm and can be used on a wide range of patients, including those with sensitive teeth or gum disease.

Benefits of GBT

One of the key benefits of GBT is that it allows for a more thorough cleaning of the teeth and gums. Biofilm can be difficult to remove with traditional brushing and flossing techniques, but GBT can remove even the most stubborn deposits. By removing biofilm, GBT can help prevent future dental problems and promote optimal oral health.
