Let's delve into Guided Biofilm Therapy.

Guided Biofilm Therapy is a biofilm management modality, tailoring treatment plans based on individual diagnoses and needs.

Biofilm in the dental context, is the leading causative entity of cavities and infections. To underscore its gravity, periodontitis could augment the risk of systemic ailments such as cardiovascular, respiratory diseases, or diabetes.

The Prophylaxis Master from AIRFLOW® employs an entirely natural, low-abrasive powder to eradicate biofilm from teeth, promising a cleaner and healthier mouth.

Applications of Guided Biofilm Therapy encompass:

Let's scrutinize these domains.
