T

he Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) is the new state-of-the-

art approach in the prophylactic world. It means that the

clinician is guided by the disclosed biofilm during professional

dental cleaning procedures.

GBT is truly minimally invasive and reduces the need of hand

and sonic instrumentation. It is safe, effective and gentle to

teeth and soft tissues, implants and restoratives. It is also

comfortable for patients and practitioners. It is efficient and

time saving. Antibacterial photodynamic therapy (tPDT)

has been effective in periodontal therapy. Previous laser

light applications included the placement of a light fiber

into the periodontal pocket to activate the photosensitizer.

Using a novel approach, the transgingival laser application

of tPDT, we have a mini invasive technique. Mixing the GBT

with the soft-laser we obtain a mini invasive treatment for

periodontal diseases with visible clinical results. During

supportive periodontal therapy, the use of tPDT adjunctive to

GBT appears to represent a promising modality for infection

control of residual pockets.
