Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT)

At Dentistes REMA, we are proud to offer you a completely different and innovative experience thanks to the GUIDED BIOFILM THERAPY (GBT) protocol. This protocol offers a no pain (for 95% of patients), fast, safe and effective state-of-the-art professional tooth cleaning. You will never see professional tooth cleaning the same way again!

Thanks to a gentle jet of air, polishing powder and warm water, GBT tooth cleaning provides a pleasant, painless and safe experience. Our team likes to say that it's like a spa for teeth!

GBT Completely Eliminates Health-Damaging Oral Biofilm

Unlike traditional tooth cleaning, which can’t remove all of the harmful plaque (also known as biofilm) in hard-to-reach areas*, GBT removes 100% of the biofilm. Almost invisible to the naked eye, the biofilm develops daily and must be completely eliminated regularly since it is causing:

  • Cavities, bad breath, tooth loss, loss of implants
  • Gingivitis (gingival bleeding)
  • Periodontitis (inflammation/gum retraction, bone loss)
  • Increased risk of developing systemic diseases (Alzheimer's, diabetes, heart and respiratory diseases, etc.)
  • * According to a July 2015 study by the Stiftung Warentest.

Benefits of GBT

  • Soft and painless tooth cleaning (for 95% of people) that adapts to all patients regardless of age
  • Does not damage teeth (reduced use of manual instruments)
  • Minimally invasive, efficient and fast
  • Helps detect cavities accurately
  • Removes stains and facilitates the removal of tartar
  • Prevents and treats gingivitis
  • Contributes to the treatment of peri-implantitis in a minimally invasive way
  • Helps maintain braces
  • Preserves exposed dentin to prevent the risk of sensitivity
  • Probably the best professional dental cleaning available right now!

The 8 Steps of The GBT Protocol

The new and modern GUIDED BIOFILM THERAPY (GBT) protocol offers a smooth and total elimination of biofilm, staining and tartar helped by recent innovative technologies. It has 8 stages of treatment.

  1. Assessment of teeth, gingiva and periodontal tissues
  2. Making the biofilm visible, because only what we see can be completely removed
  3. Raise awareness of proper oral hygiene
  4. Removing biofilm, discoloration and early calculus using a gentle jet of air, polishing powder and warm water (EMS AIRFLOW technology)
  5. Removing the biofilm underneath the gums
  6. Gentle removal of remaining calculus (PIEZON PS NO PAIN)
  7. Quality control and final diagnosis
  8. Scheduling of the next appointment because healthy teeth = healthier body!

With these eight steps, the GBT clinical protocol guarantees a high and consistent level of quality
