Dental health is an essential part of your overall well-being. At our dentilla 19 dental office in Wilmersdorf, we offer comprehensive preventive and periodontal services to keep your teeth and gums healthy. Our innovative methods, in particular Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT), enable thorough and gentle cleaning of your teeth. Through targeted preventive measures and the treatment of gum disease, we make a significant contribution to ensuring your oral health and preventing serious dental diseases.
What is Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT)?
Guided Biofilm Therapy is a modern and effective method of professional teeth cleaning. This method is based on scientific findings and aims to remove biofilm—a buildup of bacteria on the teeth—precisely and gently. GBT involves several steps:
- Diagnosis and staining: At the
beginning of the treatment, we stain the biofilm on your teeth to make it
visible. This enables targeted and thorough cleaning.
- Professional teeth cleaning: The teeth
are thoroughly cleaned using special devices such as AirFlow, PerioFlow, and
Piezon. AirFlow uses a fine powder jet to remove the biofilm, while PerioFlow
and Piezon are used specifically for cleaning gum pockets.
- Follow-up check and consultation: After cleaning, we check the results and give you individual tips on how to improve your oral hygiene.
Advantages of Guided Biofilm Therapy
- Gentle cleaning: GBT is a
minimally invasive method that is gentle on the gums and does not cause damage
to the teeth.
- Effective removal of biofilm: Targeted
staining and modern cleaning techniques thoroughly remove biofilm, reducing the
risk of caries and gum disease.
- Comfort for you: The treatment is comfortable and painless, making it suitable even for sensitive patients.
Periodontology – Treatment of gum disease
Periodontology deals with the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the periodontium, in particular periodontitis. Periodontitis is a bacterial inflammation that damages the gums and jawbone and, if left untreated, can lead to tooth loss. At our office, we offer comprehensive periodontal treatments:
- Diagnostics: A thorough
examination and diagnosis are the basis for successful treatment of
periodontitis. We assess the condition of your gums and determine the severity
of the disease.
- Conservative therapy: Initial treatment includes professional
cleaning of the gum pockets to remove bacterial plaque. In addition, taking
probiotics can support the restoration of healthy oral flora.
- Surgical procedures: In advanced
cases, surgery may be necessary to remove the diseased tissue and restore the
health of the periodontium.
- Follow-up care and prevention: After treatment, regular check-ups and professional teeth cleaning are important to prevent the disease from recurring.
