Technology
How does the GalvoSurge cleaning system remove biofilm?
The GalvoSurge Dental Implant Cleaning System removes the biofilm by spraying an electrolytic cleaning solution around the implant. The liquid gets activated by a extra low voltage and during this electrolytic process the biofilm is removed even from areas of the implant that are difficult to access. The process only takes 2 minutes per implant.
