Guided Biofilm Therapy at Virginia Biological Dentistry

A Holistic Approach to Modern Dental Hygiene

At Virginia Biological Dentistry, we are committed to providing advanced, patient-centered care that aligns with holistic dental principles. Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT), developed by EMS Dental, is a revolutionary protocol that prioritizes comfort, precision, and overall health. This state-of-the-art technique not only enhances oral health but also supports systemic wellness, embodying the core values of biological dentistry.

What is Guided Biofilm Therapy?

Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) is an innovative, evidence-based method for managing dental biofilm—the primary cause of cavities, gum disease, and peri-implant infections. GBT follows a systematic eight-step protocol, ensuring thorough and gentle biofilm removal while respecting the natural balance of the oral microbiome.

GBT Meets Holistic Dentistry

At Virginia Biological Dentistry, we recognize the mouth-body connection and the importance of using biocompatible, minimally invasive treatments. GBT integrates seamlessly with our holistic philosophy by:

The 8 Steps of Guided Biofilm Therapy

1. Assessment and Infection Control: Your treatment begins with a mouth rinse and an evaluation of the teeth, gums, and surrounding tissues.

2. Disclose: Your dentist will use a special dye to highlight the biofilm to ensure precise cleaning.

3. Motivate: We educate patients on oral hygiene and provide personalized home care recommendations.

4. AIRFLOW® Cleaning: Your dentist will use AIRFLOW® technology to remove biofilm, stains, and early calculus.

5. PERIOFLOW® for Deep Pockets: Periodontal pockets deeper than 4mm will be cleaned with a targeted airflow.

6. CAVITRON: We will eliminate any remaining calculus with minimally invasive ultrasonic technology.

7. Check: Your dentist will inspect for remaining biofilm or calculus, diagnose any issues, and apply fluoride if needed.

8. Recall: Scheduling follow-up visits based on individual needs and risk assessments is essential.
