Guided Biofilm Therapy
Experience Gentler, More Thorough Cleanings
Freshly Cleaned Teeth & Gums, Without The Discomfort
Plaque, also known as “biofilm”, discolors your teeth, creeps under your gums, and makes you more likely to get cavities, gum disease, or even diabetes or heart disease.
Traditional cleanings often involve scraping or a rotating brush, which can be incredibly uncomfortable, especially if you have sensitive teeth or gums, or even dental restorations like crowns, fillings or implants.
With our Guided Biofilm Therapy, you can experience the joys and benefits of a clean smile without any scraping or discomfort!
What Is Guided Biofilm Therapy?
Guided Biofilm Therapy (or GBT) is an innovative approach to cleaning your teeth and gums that removes plaque more gently and effectively than the traditional methods.
GBT Can Be Used For:
- preventing cavities or tooth decay
- preventing or comfortably treating gum disease
- safely cleaning around dental implants, crowns, or braces
The GBT Process
Using warm water, a fine powder and air pressure, our hygienist gently removes any biofilm, stains, or bacteria that has formed or is forming on your teeth or below your gumline.
If you have tartar, which is hardened plaque that has built up over time, we can use a special nozzle and some almost imperceptible vibrations to remove that for you too.
No more painful scraping, abrasive pastes, or heavy vibrations!
The Benefits Of GBT
More comfort: GBT is less invasive and far more comfortable than traditional cleaning or scaling
Less pain: Without the scraping, sharp tools and heavy vibrations, you can just sit back and enjoy a cleaner, healthier smile
A lighter, brighter smile: This cleaning process can lighten and in some cases even remove stains from your enamel
A healthier, happier you: Effectively and regularly removing plaque (aka the biofilm) means you’re less likely to get cavities, gum disease, or the more serious health issues like strokes or diabetes that plaque can contribute to
