Achieve a Healthier Smile With Guided Biofilm Therapy
Guided Biofilm Therapy is an advanced dental treatment designed to target and remove dental plaque and biofilm, which are the primary causes of tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral health problems. Unlike traditional cleaning methods, Guided Biofilm Therapy employs state-of-the-art technology and a systematic approach to ensure thorough and effective plaque removal. This innovative treatment helps leave your teeth and gums healthier, promoting optimal oral hygiene and preventing future dental issues.
Why Plaque Removal is Crucial for Oral Health
Plaque is a sticky, colorless film that forms on your teeth, containing harmful bacteria that can contribute to tooth decay and gum disease if not properly managed. Although regular brushing and flossing are essential in removing plaque, it can be difficult to thoroughly clean all areas of your mouth, especially those hard-to-reach spots such as the back of your teeth and along the gum line. These areas are often missed during regular oral care, allowing plaque to accumulate and potentially lead to oral health issues. That's why it's important to complement your at-home routine with professional cleanings to ensure all plaque is removed effectively.
The Guided Biofilm Therapy Treatment Process
Air Polishing
In the first step of Guided Biofilm Therapy, your dentist will use a specialized device that sprays a gentle mixture of air, water, and fine powder particles onto your teeth. This process, called air polishing, effectively removes plaque, stains, and biofilm from the surfaces of your teeth. As a result, your teeth are left clean, smooth, and free from harmful buildup, promoting better oral health.
Ultrasonic Scaling
In the second step of Guided Biofilm Therapy, your dentist will use an ultrasonic scaler to eliminate any remaining plaque and tartar from your teeth. The ultrasonic scaler utilizes high-frequency vibrations to break up and remove hardened deposits, providing a deep and thorough cleaning of both your teeth and gums. This step ensures that all plaque and tartar are effectively removed, leaving your mouth fresh and healthy.
Laser Therapy
The final step of Guided Biofilm Therapy involves the use of laser therapy to target any remaining bacteria and encourage gum healing. The laser emits a focused beam of light that effectively kills bacteria while stimulating the regeneration of healthy gum tissue. This process helps reduce inflammation and promotes optimal oral health by enhancing the natural healing of your gums.
