Gentle Teeth Cleanings

With Guided Bio Film Therapy

Dental cleanings have historically involved a somewhat uncomfortable plaque-removing process. Thankfully, our team is one of only two offices in Cary that has received certification in Guided Biofilm Therapy, which allows us to offer you a more comfortable teeth cleaning.

Why Professional Cleanings Matter

You brush and floss diligently, which is fantastic! However, even the most dedicated oral care can’t reach every nook and cranny in your mouth.

Professional dental cleanings can help you:

  • Protect against cavity-causing bacteria.
  • Prevent and manage gingivitis and periodontitis.
  • Remove plaque and buildup of bacteria that causes halitosis.

What is Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT)?

GBT is used during routine cleanings with EMS AirFlow technology to remove all the bacteria in your mouth that may contribute to tooth decay and gum disease.

Time for a Cleaning?

The simple answer is: Yes, probably!

For most people, we recommend a professional dental cleaning every six months. This allows us to effectively remove plaque and tartar before it causes significant problems.

However, if you have a history of gum disease, are undergoing orthodontic treatment (braces), or have certain medical conditions, we might recommend more frequent visits.
