Gum Bleeding and Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT)

Bleeding gums are often the first sign of gum disease. At our Dubai dental clinic, we use Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) - a revolutionary approach to dental hygiene.

What is Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT)?

GBT is an 8-step systematic protocol developed by EMS that focuses on:

1.Assessment: Evaluating oral health status
2.Disclosing: Making biofilm visible with special dyes
3.Motivation: Patient education on proper oral hygiene
4.AIRFLOW®: Removing biofilm with air, water, and erythritol powder
5.PERIOFLOW®: Treating periodontal pockets
6.PIEZON®: Removing remaining calculus
7.Quality Control: Checking for complete biofilm removal
8.Recall: Scheduling maintenance appointments

Benefits of GBT:

Minimally invasive and comfortable
More effective biofilm removal
Preserves tooth enamel
Reduces treatment time
Prevents gum disease progression

Why Your Gums Bleed

Bleeding gums indicate inflammation caused by bacterial biofilm buildup. Without proper treatment, this can progress to periodontitis, leading to bone loss and tooth loss.
