What Is GBT?

Guided Biofilm Therapy is a systematic and reliable approach to managing dental biofilm during professional cleanings, utilizing cutting-edge AIRFLOW®, PERIOFLOW®, and PIEZON® technologies. Its effectiveness is supported by scientific research.

This therapy follows treatment protocols tailored to each patient’s specific diagnosis and risk factors, ensuring optimal outcomes. The process is designed to be minimally invasive while offering maximum comfort, safety, and efficiency.

As part of Guided Biofilm Therapy, patients receive personalized oral hygiene instructions using Philips Sonicare toothbrushes and Airfloss, along with education and motivation to help preserve their natural teeth and implants for as long as possible.

Why Is GBT A "Game Changer"?

Dental biofilm is the primary cause of cavities, as well as periodontal and peri-implant infections. Additionally, periodontitis has been linked to an increased risk of systemic conditions such as cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, arthritis, and diabetes.

Maintaining regular oral hygiene, along with professional care, is essential for controlling biofilm and supporting both oral and overall health. Preventive dentistry was pioneered in the 1970s by Axelsson and Lindhe, who developed clinical protocols centered around regular maintenance visits, known as "recall hours."

Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) aligns with the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP) guidelines for Professional Mechanical Plaque Removal (PMPR) and Oral Hygiene Instructions (OHI) to support effective home care.

Gbt Benefits

SAFE AND EFFECTIVE

GBT is truly minimally invasive and reduces the need for hand and sonic/ultrasonic instrumentation. It is safe, effective and gentle to teeth, soft tissues and implants. It can also be applied to primary caries and perio prevention in children and teenagers.

SUPERIOR CLEANING

GBT begins with the use of a disclosing agent to guide clinicians to remove all biofilm during professional tooth cleaning procedures. This ensures complete biofilm removal.

COMFORTABLE AND TIME SAVING TREATMENT

A minimal invasive protocol that enables you to significantly reduce treatment-time in comparison to the standard PMPR (curettes & rubber cups)

GREATER RECALLS

GBT is part of a comprehensive preventive concept – to preserve your patients’ oral health – and to make the patients feel good. This leads to higher patient retention and more referrals.
