Guided Biofilm Therapy in Chestnut Hill, MA
A clean mouth promotes your oral health and guards your general health. The plaque biofilm in the mouth is responsible for causing problems like cavities and gum disease. Plaque can accumulate over time, and when it is not removed, it will begin to take its toll on your mouth, teeth, gums, and bone.
Hammond Pond Dental Group invests in modern technologies to help patients receive efficient, safe, and accurate dental care. In our dental clinic, we have introduced Guided Biofilm Therapy in Chestnut Hill, MA, a modern and innovative approach to biofilm removal.
What is Guided Biofilm Therapy?
Microbial dental plaque should be removed effectively through daily oral hygiene and regular professional cleanings. To achieve gentle and effective prophylaxis, our dental team applies modern methods such as Guided Biofilm Therapy or GBT.
GBT is an efficient, predictable solution for removing and managing dental biofilm in professional teeth cleanings. It uses state-of-the-art technologies such as PERIOFLOW, PIEZON, and AIRFLOW. This system of teeth cleaning has been proven through scientific evidence.
Biofilm therapy has treatment protocols based on the patient’s diagnosis and a risk assessment to help achieve optimal results. Our dentist provides the treatment in the least invasive way, ensuring patient comfort, efficiency in treatment, and safety.
To maintain natural teeth and implants, you should seek a dental clinic that offers Guided Biofilm Therapy near you.
How Does Guided Biofilm Therapy Work?
Our dentist or hygienist will assess your mouth to help implement the right hygiene measures. The dentist rinses your mouth with mouthwash and assesses the teeth, gums, or even implants and peri-implant tissues.
Next, the dentist makes the biofilm visible using EMS Biofilm Discolor. Part of the Guided Biofilm Therapy is raising awareness and teaching patients about the importance of prevention and keeping oral hygiene at optimal levels. We recommend using interdental brushes, dental floss, or even manual and electric toothbrushes with AIRFLOW erythritol toothpaste.
Moreover, our dentist applies the AIRFLOW technology to remove biofilm, stains, and the forming tartar. Using AIRFLOW to remove biofilm and stains ensures natural teeth restorations. An AIRFLOW Powder works to remove supra and subgingival biofilm. Additionally, the powder removes biofilm within the palate, tongue, and gingiva. AIRFLOW CLASSIC Comfort Powder removes the remaining stains on the teeth’s enamel.
Also, the dentist applies the PERIOFLOW technology to remove the plaque or biofilm in deep pockets and the root surfaces, including the implants. A PERIOFLOW nozzle is used to clean these areas.
Once plaque has been removed from the deep pockets, the dentist uses PIEZON technology to eradicate the remaining tartar. This minimally invasive EMS PIEZON PS instrument works on the supra and subgingival tissues to remove tartar. It also works on the pockets to take away the calculus.
Final Check
After the cleaning, the dentist does the final check to see if any biofilm remains. Our dentist will also make sure that all the tartar has fully been eradicated. With clean teeth and gums, it is easier to spot cavities and other problems on the teeth and gums. The dentist can perform a fluoride treatment. With GBT, there is no polishing anymore. It is comfortable, safe, and effective at removing elements like biofilm and early tartar or stains on teeth.
GBT is a game changer in professional teeth and gum cleaning or prophylaxis. It can control plaque biofilm, thus ensuring better oral and systemic health.
