Abrasive teeth cleaning method - vs AIRFLOW method
Guided Biofilm Therapy
Airflow technology uses a modern approach called Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT), a technique that guides us to remove harmful plaque and bacteria also known as biofilm from the mouth, the main cause of gum disease and tooth decay, providing an effective, yet minimally invasive clean. It is the new way of delivering pain free hygiene treatment.
The Procedure
The procedure begins with the use of a special dye to highlight biofilm, making it easier to detect. The biofilm is then gently removed using a combination of air, water, and fine powder with Airflow technology. This treatment is effective in preventing gum disease, tooth decay, and maintaining overall oral health. GBT is safe for use on all dental restorations, including crowns, veneers, and implants, ensuring a thorough yet gentle clean.
