Seeing is believing


New to GC UK’s product range is Tri Plaque ID Gel. As the name suggests, Tri Plaque ID Gel allows you and your patient to identify areas of plaque in three easy steps. GC’s Tri Plaque ID Gel quickly identifies new, mature and acid producing biofilms. This unique gel also highlights exactly where the bacteria are most active by disclosing the acidic pH. This additional information will be a great help in your daily practice to


motivate your patients to improve their oral hygiene. Because after all, people often need to see something to believe it.


The Gel is colour coded for easy identification: • blue/purple – old plaque (more than 48 hours)


• red/pink – newly formed plaque • light blue – high-risk plaque. Tri Plaque ID Gel encourages patients to be more precise with their tooth brushing technique. Once diagnosis is complete, simply brush the teeth to clean them.

why we launched our nationwide Superstar Smile campaign in National Smile Month.”
