ตรวจสุขภาพฟันพร้อมขูดหินปูนด้วยเครื่อง GBT Airflow

Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) is an advanced dental cleaning system designed to provide a structured approach to treatment. It focuses on removing biofilm, or bacterial plaque, from the teeth. The cleaning process involves both airflow technology and scaling to remove plaque and calculus from the tooth surface. The airflow technique combines water, air, and fine cleaning powder, effectively removing biofilm without damaging the enamel. The GBT Airflow device uses a fine 14-micron powder, which enhances the cleaning process by effectively removing stubborn stains better than traditional scaling alone, particularly for smoke, tea, coffee, and plaque stains, leaving teeth exceptionally clean.
&nbsp;
The GBT (Guided Biofilm Therapy) protocol provides a &#8220;cleaner&#8221; approach by staining biofilm deposits, making hidden biofilm visible to the naked eye. This stain helps patients identify areas that have not been adequately cleaned in the past 1–2 days. Once the treatment is complete, the colored biofilm will be entirely removed, ensuring a truly thorough cleaning of the teeth.
&nbsp;
The Airflow technique is a highlight of the GBT (Guided Biofilm Therapy) protocol, offering a gentler, more comfortable cleaning experience for removing biofilm, tea, coffee, and tobacco stains without pain. The Plus powder used does not scratch the tooth surface and prevents irritation or injury to the gums and soft tissues. It can also clean the surfaces of various dental materials and devices in the mouth (such as fillings, crowns, veneers, implants, and orthodontic appliances).
&nbsp;
With Airflow completed, dentists can clearly see any remaining dental calculus on the tooth surface. The piezon scaler, designed with a slimmer and smaller tip, effectively removes calculus both above and below the gumline. This tool minimizes tooth sensitivity and gum irritation, allowing for a more comfortable and thorough cleaning, giving patients greater confidence in their dental hygiene.

<h2>Advantages of GBT Airflow</h2>
<ol>
<li>Deep Cleaning: Achieves thorough cleaning, removing both yellow and black stains.</li>
<li>Specialized Powder: The 14-micron polishing powder reaches into dental crevices and grooves.</li>
<li>Preventative Care: Helps prevent cavities and gum disease.</li>
<li>Supports Cosmetic Dentistry: Pairs well with teeth whitening for optimal results, as GBT cleaning preps the tooth surface for better whitening outcomes.</li>
<li>No Pain Technology: The scaling intensity adjusts automatically based on the thickness of the tartar layer, minimizing discomfort.</li>
</ol>
&nbsp;
<h2>GBT Airflow Procedure Steps</h2>
1. Consultation and Detailed Dental Examination:
<ul>
<li style="list-style-type: none;">
<ul>
<li>A dental X-ray screening is performed to assess the health of the teeth and gums. The dentist evaluates if GBT Airflow is suitable or if another treatment is needed first. If the X-ray reveals issues like gum disease or impacted teeth, further treatment may be recommended.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
2. Biofilm Stain Detection:
<ul>
<li style="list-style-type: none;">
<ul>
<li>Plaque is stained to make biofilm visible, helping patients see areas needing more attention in daily cleaning. This stain also allows the dentist to clearly explain any oral health issues.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
3. Airflow Cleaning:
<ul>
<li style="list-style-type: none;">
<ul>
<li>Using the specialized GBT Airflow nozzle, which releases a mix of water, air, and polishing powder, biofilm and stained areas are thoroughly cleaned. The device can reach areas both above and below the gum line, up to a depth of 9mm. The Airflow powder, made from an erythritol base, is unique for being safe, water-soluble, and non-abrasive to tooth surfaces and dental restorations.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
4. Scaling:
<ul>
<li style="list-style-type: none;">
<ul>
<li>Any remaining calculus is removed with piezoelectric scalers, ensuring a complete cleaning above and below the gums.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
5. Final Examination:
<ul>
<li style="list-style-type: none;">
<ul>
<li>After cleaning, the dentist checks to ensure all plaque and stains are removed.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<h2>Ideal Candidates for GBT Airflow</h2>
<ul>
<li>Suitable for all ages, recommended for children aged 6 and above.</li>
<li>Individuals with calculus buildup but without gum disease.</li>
<li>People with yellowing from tea, coffee, or smoking.</li>
<li>Those looking for regular dental maintenance.</li>
<li>Patients with chronic conditions (e.g., diabetes, heart disease) or those undergoing orthodontic treatment.</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<h2>Limitations/Contraindications</h2>
<ul>
<li>Patients with active gum disease or periodontal conditions.</li>
<li>Those with impacted teeth or oral inflammation.</li>
<li>Patients allergic to erythritol or chlorhexidine.</li>
<li>Elderly patients with difficulty managing oral fluid or keeping their mouths open for extended periods.</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
GBT is suitable for everyone, from children to the elderly, aiming for cleaner teeth, increased comfort, and confidence in their smiles after treatment.
