In a world of scanners, lasers, and 3D printers, why would a dentist invest in GBT for their hygiene department? Dentists will never be free of the temptation to purchase another toy. Constant innovation in technology regularly promises to make dentistry easier, more predictable, and highly satisfying for the patient. The problem is, most equipment upgrades are used, at best, once or twice a day. Guided Biofilm Therapy is the one investment in dentistry that can be used on every patient that comes in for hygiene, making their experience more pleasant, efficient, effective, and motivating.

Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) affects your quality of life and your overall health. The ability to safely swallow is vital for adequate nutrition and hydration, and it prevents foods and liquids from entering your lungs, where they can cause pneumonia. Depending on which part of the swallowing process is affected, dysphagia can be described as: • Oral dysphagia — when the problem is in the mouth, usually due to the movement of the tongue • Pharyngeal or oropharyngeal dysphagia — when the problem is regarding food passing through the throat • Esophageal dysphagia — when food is unable to move down through the esophagus Swallowing disorders can lead to tooth decay and other oral health issues if they cause food or liquid to remain in the mouth. This can increase the risk of cavities and other oral diseases.







Elevating Patient’s Experience During an Interproximal Reduction Procedure
Presenter: Gory Cottinini
Sponsor: GC America

View Full Description »
Discover the differences between automatic and manual interproximal reduction. In the last 20 years there has been a major development in the use of clear aligners and functional concepts applied to orthodontic treatments, both on children and adult patients. A key element is interproximal enamel reduction, a fundamental practice to recover the interproximal space in order to facilitate teeth movement in orthodontic treatments and to insure clean and accurate procedures in Class II patients especially dealing in the posterior sectors. The main technology contributing, not only to obtaining excellent results, but to raise the level of care and protection towards patients is automatic IPR, helping clinicians to maintain excellent control, avoid over-reductions, avoid severe damages and excessive pressure applied to the patient during treatment; all factors that manual or obsolete techniques may cause.

In today’s episode, we’re exploring the transformative role technology plays in elevating the patient experience—helping create more meaningful interactions, better outcomes, and stronger trust in the care being delivered. When dental hygienists actively engage with cutting-edge technology and the clinical tools that come with it, they not only improve patient education, case acceptance, and compliance, but also help streamline insurance claim approvals and enhance overall clinical efficiency. In doing so, many hygienists gain a renewed perspective on their profession—often leading to greater career fulfillment and satisfaction.
