Clean Teeth, Healthy Life

GBT professional tooth cleaning is necessary to deliver a beautiful smile and to maintain healthy teeth. It removes harmful plaque (called biofilm) on teeth and gums. It is the only way to prevent gum disease (periodontitis) and tooth decay (caries), both identified as common diseases by the World Health Organization.

What is Guided Biofilm Therapy?

Developed in collaboration with universities and dentists, GBT is a clinical protocol designed to treat up to 100% of biofilm bacteria and maintain dental health over time. It combines professional cleaning at the dentist's office with proper at-home dental care, ensuring comprehensive biofilm control.

Pain-Free and Comfortable Treatment

Utilising water, air, and a fine cleansing powder, it efficiently eradicates harmful bacteria and calculus. The procedure employs innovative technology to delicately eliminate biofilm using a warm water jet and gentle air stream, guaranteeing a comprehensive yet comfortable cleaning experience. In contrast to conventional tooth cleanings, GBT is minimally invasive and safe for sensitive teeth and gums. .

The Necessity Of Biofilm Removal

Biofilm is a thin, nearly invisible layer on teeth that contains millions of bacteria. These bacteria convert sugars into acids, leading to tooth decay. Regular removal of biofilm, both at home and through professional GBT sessions, is essential for preventing dental diseases

Oral Biofilm And Its Health Implications

Biofilm harbors bacteria that can damage teeth and supporting structures like gums and bone. Certain bacteria, such as Porphyromonas Gingivalis, flourish in biofilms and may migrate through the gums, potentially exacerbating illnesses, for instance cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and other common aliments.

Making Biofilm Visible

A crucial step in GBT is "disclosing," which makes biofilm visible on teeth and gums. This visibility ensures its complete removal, enhancing the effectiveness of the cleaning process. By adhering to the GBT protocol and maintaining diligent at-home oral care, individuals can effectively manage biofilm, promoting both dental and overall health.
