When it comes to dental hygiene, we have some very smart tech up our sleeves. Developed in Switzerland, Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) swaps old-school cleaning techniques for a faster, more comfortable and more effective hygiene experience. GBT targets the invisible film of bacteria (biofilm) that forms in your mouth, using gentle but powerful AirFlow™ technology.
This minimally invasive treatment works on your tongue and gums, not just your teeth. And because it’s so gentle, GBT not only feels great, it’s also perfect for cleaning braces, crowns, veneers and dental implants If you suffer from staining on your teeth – or if you’re planning to have whitening treatments, GBT is the way to achieve the best results!
It hides in your mouth, destroying gum tissue and teeth, and it can lead to strokes, heart attacks, or Alzheimer’s disease. Don’t think it’s your problem? Up to 80 percent of the population unknowingly has gum disease in some form.
Most adult tooth loss is linked to gum disease. But research also shows links between gum disease and serious health conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and complications with pregnancy.
Gum disease is silent; early symptoms may be painless and mild, like swollen gums or bleeding when you brush.
Regular dental and hygienist check-ups are vital because we can detect, treat, and reverse gum disease in the early stages before major problems arise.
Several factors can contribute to the development of gum disease: the build-up of plaque on your teeth (known as biofilm) , genetics, and your lifestyle choices. But the most common and controllable factor is dental biofilm — the sticky, colourless coating on your teeth produced by normal mouth bacteria. These bacteria release toxins that break down the natural fibres that bond gums to your teeth.
When this occurs, pockets form between the gums and teeth, and more bacteria and toxins hide, flourish, and destroy your gums. Over time, this process affects not only gums, teeth, and the bone within the mouth, but can also significantly affect your overall health.
The GBT mouth-fresh sensation is hands-down one of the best things about dental appointments. With a whole host of hi-tech equipment and loads of advanced hygiene know-how, our team can help you achieve that feeling every single day.
