In this episode of Before & Beyond, Lim Lee Yean dives into the world of guided biofilm therapy and how it can revolutionize your dental hygiene routine. As a dental hygienist at Dental Design Clinic, she explains how this technique uses a disclosing agent to highlight areas on your teeth where biofilm accumulates, particularly around the gum line and tooth angles. By visualising these areas, you can focus your brushing efforts more effectively. She share insights on the importance of brushing gently and taking your time — two minutes for the entire mouth, one minute for the top, and one for the bottom. Through a case study, we explore the progress a patient made over a year by applying these techniques, showing the tangible benefits of improved brushing habits. Tune in to learn how mastering these techniques can lead to a healthier smile.
