Guided BioFilm Therapy in Columbus


Experience a New Standard in Dental Cleanings with Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT)

At Whole Tree Dentistry, we believe preventive care should be as advanced, effective, and comfortable as possible. That’s why we offer Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT), a breakthrough in dental cleanings that gently removes biofilm (plaque), stains, and bacteria using state-of-the-art technology and a minimally invasive approach.

GBT is perfect for patients of all ages, including those with gum disease, implants, or orthodontic appliances. It’s also ideal for those who prefer a more comfortable alternative to traditional cleanings.

What is Guided Biofilm Therapy?

GBT follows an 8-step, science-based protocol that includes:

  • Plaque Disclosure: A special dye highlights areas of biofilm to guide a targeted, personalized cleaning
  • Airflow® Therapy: A gentle mix of warm water, air, and erythritol or glycine powder removes soft plaque, early calculus, and stains
  • Piezon® Ultrasonic Scaling: Precisely targets and removes hard buildup with minimal impact on enamel or soft tissue
  • Whole-Body Wellness: GBT supports systemic health by reducing harmful bacteria linked to chronic inflammation

Why Choose GBT at Whole Tree Dentistry?

  • More comfortable than traditional cleanings - no scraping
  • Safe for natural teeth, restorations, implants, and soft tissues
  • Improves oral hygiene by educating patients on areas of concern
  • Supports our holistic, biologic, and airway-centered approach to dentistry
  • Helps reduce systemic inflammation by removing oral pathogens

We Also Offer Traditional Cleanings

While we strongly believe in the benefits of Guided Biofilm Therapy, we also continue to offer traditional dental cleanings for patients who prefer them or who may be better suited to that method. In some cases, patients may have contraindications to GBT, such as specific respiratory conditions or sensitivities, making the traditional approach more appropriate for their care.
