Guided Biofilm Therapy GBT
Guided Biofilm Therapy, or GBT, is a systematic, predictable solution for dental biofilm management in professional prophylaxis using state of the art AIRFLOW®, PERIOFLOW® and PIEZON® technologies.
Guided Biofilm Therapy consists of treatment protocols based on individual patient diagnosis and risk assessment in order to achieve optimal results.
The GBT treatment is given in the least invasive way, with the highest level of comfort, safety and efficiency.
The 8 Steps of Guided Biofilm Therapy Protocol
Assess every clinical case and implement hygiene measures:
- Start by rinsing with BacterX® Pro mouthwash
- Assess teeth, gingiva and periodontal tissues
- Assess implants and peri-implant tissues
Make Biofilm visible:
- Highlight to patients the disclosed biofilm and their problematic areas with EMS Biofilm Discloser
- The colour will guide biofilm removal
- Once biofilm is removed, calculus is easier to detect
Raise awareness and teach:
- Emphasize the importance of prevention
- Instruct your patients in oral hygiene
- EMS recommends interdental brushes or dental floss as well as electric or manual toothbrushes and AIRFLOW® erythritol toothpaste for daily home care
Remove biofilm, stains and early calculus:
- Use AIRFLOW® MAX for natural teeth, restorations and implants.
- Remove biofilm supra- and subgingivally up to 4 mm using AIRFLOW® PLUS 14 μm Powder
- Also remove biofilm from gingiva, tongue and palate.
Remove biofilm in >4 to 9 mm pockets:
- Use AIRFLOW® PLUS Powder on natural teeth in deep pockets and root furcations and on implants
- Use new and slimmer PERIOFLOW® Nozzle
Remove remaining calculus:
- Use the minimally invasive EMS PS instrument supra-and sugingivally up to 10 mm
- Clean > 10 mm pockets with mini curette
- Use EMS PIEZON® PI MAX Instrument around implants up to 3 mm subgingivally and on restorations


Make your patient smile:
- Do a final check for remaining biofilm
- Ensure calculus is fully removed
- Accurately diagnose caries
- Protect with fluoride and apply EMS AIRFOAM for a fresh and smooth feeling
- No polishing anymore


Healthy patient = Happy patient:
- Schedule recall frequency according to risk assessment
- Ask your patient if he or she liked the treatment
