In the dynamic field of dental care, where constant innovation aims to enhance oral hygiene standards and elevate patient comfort, Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) stands out as a groundbreaking approach. Dr. Gunadi and I are eager to share this transformative information with you!
Curious about the steps involved? It begins with a thorough assessment by your Dentist and Dental Hygienist, evaluating the extent of biofilm in your mouth. If everything checks out, your hygienist will apply a disclosing dye to all the teeth—a visual aid revealing plaque/biofilm buildup. This tool proves amazing for patients to witness firsthand, fostering a collaborative approach to their dental health.
Now, let’s introduce the star player—GBT. This cutting-edge device combines water, air, and fine powder particles to gently and effectively remove biofilm and stains. Proven to be less abrasive than traditional polishing, it ensures a comfortable experience for the patient. Following this, Ultrasonic scaling and manual instrumentation come into play, meticulously removing calculus (tartar) and stubborn biofilm.
After the removal of biofilm, fluoride takes the stage, fortifying tooth enamel for an additional layer of protection against decay. Excitingly, Uxbridge Dental offers fluoride varnish, the gold standard of fluoride treatment.
GBT empowers your Dental Hygienist/Dentist to provide valuable insights into proper oral hygiene practices. They offer guidance on brushing, flossing, and the use of dental aids. Discussions also extend to lifestyle and dietary factors impacting oral health, empowering patients to maintain their newfound cleanliness.
At Uxbridge Dental, we eagerly anticipate adding GBT to our list of services for our valued patients! Stay tuned for more information via the provided link.
Your dedicated hygienist, Kal.
