EMS Guided Biofilm Therapy – The Game Changer!

With Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT), you are opting for the ‘gold standard’ in professional prophylactic treatment. As patients become aware how preventive oral care can reduce the need for expensive restorative work, the more they will demand dental practices to make the latest technological developments and procedures available.

Read our checklist HERE on how to qualify as a GBTCertified Practice and get all the added benefits.

GBT leads the paradigm shift in professional prophylaxis based on the latest scientific evidence.

It employs the AIR-FLOW method which has the following proven benefits:

Improves visibility of calculus
Minimises harmful oral bacteria
Significantly enhances patient comfort
Reduces effort and the strain on the practitioner when using ultrasonic devices
Saves time that can be better used during the consultation

Dental hygienists in South Africa can become accredited GBT professionals with Swiss Dental Academy (SDA) training conducted by local oral hygienist Dirna Grobbelaar, one of only four SDA qualified trainers in the country. Grobbelaar offers GBT training at Ivodent’s International Centre For Dental Education (ICDE) in Cape Town and other training venues around the country – watch IvodentSA Facebook Events for dates and venues.

Ivodent’s SDA programme covers Guided Biofilm Therapy, implant cleaning and safe usage of the Air-Flow and Piezon instrumentation with added clinical and scientific evidence and practical exercises.

“Guided Biofilm Therapy is so different, innovative and effective that it makes oral hygiene exciting again”, says Grobbelaar. “Whilst the GBT protocol is different to what we were taught in some ways, it also helps improve important basics, such as using a plaque indicator and improving scaling technique.”

By offering GBT your dental practice benefits:

The patient – a pain-free and minimally invasive procedure
The hygienist – reduces time and effort for maximum results
The practice – adds value to services offered

Ivodent exclusively supplies exclusively supplies South Africa with the EMS (Electro Medical Systems) prophylaxis device – quality made in Switzerland. EMS are experts in removing biofilm – the root cause of tooth decay, periodontitis and peri-Implantitis – with scientifically proven methods and breakthrough products. Your patients will enjoy natural and healthy teeth and implants for much longer. Additional information on EMS

A distinct desire for innovation, a unique idea and a good sense for the challenges in modern dental offices were the key ingredients to the founding of EMS Electro Medical Systems in Switzerland in 1981 by Bernd Buhner and Pierre Mabille. In 1983 they presented their first prophylaxis devices with the AIR-FLOW and PIEZON systems, which have dramatically changed the modern approach to dental care. They have always been guided by a specific conviction: that a visit to the dentist should be pleasant and painless. With this vision, EMS has become one of the world’s most successful dental companies. Today, more than 500 people work with EMS each day to make dental prophylaxis increasingly successful, fast, painless and effective.

		HT EMS No Pain Led Scaler The PIEZON® NO PAIN module is the ultimate standard when it comes to ultrasonic scaling solutions, combining efficiency and optimal patient comfort all in one kit. This is possible thanks to its dynamic power-response feature that constantly regulates the ultrasonic power to the applied load, automatically increasing power when resistance at the tip increases and automatically decreasing power when resistance at the tip decreases. All this combines to give an intelligent and intuitive technology, ideal for minimally-invasive treatments that respect both the tooth’s natural structure and soft tissues. PIEZON® NO PAIN Built-in Kit can be integrated into virtually any dental chair and is also available with the PIEZON®LED and non-LED handpieces. It features a high-precision power-control system and supports a number of applications such as scaling, periodontal, endodontic and restorative therapies and is compatible with all EMS Swiss InstrumentsPM.

		EMS Air-Flow Perio-Flow Marked Nozzles The PERIOFLOW® nozzle has revolutionized the way we do prophylaxis and implant maintenance today. Indeed, with its flexible nozzle and incredible engineering, the PERIOFLOW® allows for a minimally-invasive treatment of periodontal pockets, implant surfaces and interdental spaces in a manner that is respectful to both soft and hard tissues. Designed with a trilateral powder-outlet and an apical water-only spray, biofilm can be safely removed from residual pockets thanks to the vortex-principle that is created. What’s more, with a measuring scale on each disposable nozzle (3mm, 5mm, 7mm, 10mm) an accurate measurement of pocket depth is allowed for a controlled application. Single-use nozzle for clinically sterile treatment high flexibility Trilateral powder outlet ensures a perfect cleaning of residual pockets Plug-in coupling with the PERIO-FLOW® handpiece Millimetrical scale (3mm, 5mm, 7mm, 10mm) for controlled pocket application			EMSDT476
