Hi, I’m Maria, your hygienist at Dentistry at East Piedmont. If you have ever avoided dental cleanings because they feel uncomfortable or aggressive, this may completely change the way you think about them.

Guided Biofilm therapy is a more advanced and more comfortable way to clean your teeth. It focuses on removing the actual cause of cavities and gum disease called biofilm. We start by using a gentle disclosing solution that makes the biofilm visible. So instead of guessing, we can see exactly where the treatment is needed and avoid unnecessary work. From there, we use a combination of warm water, airflow, a fine powder to gently remove buildup and stains. Most patients find this much more comfortable than a traditional cleaning. If needed, we’ll follow with very precise, minimal instrumentation to make sure everything is fully addressed, but overall the process is more targeted and efficient. As a hygienist, this allows me to be much more precise and much more comfortable for the patient.

The result is a cleaner, healthier mouth with a noticeably more comfortable experience. If you’ve been putting off cleaning or you’re looking for a more modern approach to dental care, Guided Biofilm Therapy may be a great fit. Call or text us at (770) 321-5558 and we’ll help you decide if it’s the right fit for you.
