Guided Biofilm Therapy with AIRFLOW® in Oregon

A more comfortable, more effective, and more holistic way to clean teeth

At Lotus Dental Wellness, dental cleanings are anything but routine. We’re proud to offer Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) with AIRFLOW®, a gentle yet highly effective way to remove plaque and biofilm—without scraping, poking, or discomfort.

What Is GBT with AIRFLOW®?

Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) is a modern approach to dental cleanings that uses a combination of advanced technologies—including AIRFLOW®, PERIOFLOW®, and PIEZON®—to remove harmful plaque (biofilm) from teeth, gums, and even around dental implants.

Here’s how it works:

  1. 🟣 Disclose – A special dye highlights areas of biofilm so nothing gets missed

  2. 💨 Airflow® cleaning – A gentle stream of warm water, air, and fine powder removes buildup without scraping

  3. 🦷 Piezon® scaling – Uses light vibrations to remove remaining tartar

  4. Polish & protect – Teeth are left smooth, fresh, and completely clean

Unlike traditional cleanings, GBT is pain-free, minimally invasive, and safe for all ages and dental conditions.
