Immersify and EMS Pioneering Revolutionary Simulation in Periodontal Care

Immersify is thrilled to announce its collaboration with EMS, the leading provider of dental prophylaxis and periodontal equipment, in developing an innovative simulation and lesson focused on Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) within the Immersify app. This groundbreaking content aims to revolutionise periodontal care training by offering a comprehensive, interactive experience for EMS trainers and trainees.  

Celso Da Costa. Director of the global Swiss Dental Academy and Global Director of Marketing at EMS, highlighted the company’s commitment to embracing technology in dentistry, saying:  

"At EMS, we believe that innovation in education is the key to advancing dental care worldwide. By integrating Augmented Reality with GBT, we’re not just teaching the future of dentistry—we’re bringing it into the present. GBT is at the core of this project because it represents the gold standard in preventive care, ensuring that dental professionals are equipped with the most cutting-edge tools and knowledge to deliver exceptional, minimally invasive treatments. This collaboration empowers clinicians to enhance patient outcomes and elevate the standard of care globally" 

The simulation within the Immersify app meticulously guides trainers and trainees through each step of GBT, offering insights into technique, optimal settings, and special considerations. Designed exclusively for EMS trainers and trainees, this simulation will be available from 17th September.

Maxwell Boardman, CTO at Immersify, expressed his excitement about the collaboration, stating, “We are delighted to partner with EMS. Bringing cutting-edge technology to the forefront of dentistry and education in general is our mission and this is a great case study for how effective it can be to advance patient care. The simulation is a dynamic platform for mastering the intricacies of Guided Biofilm Therapy, and the animations are a modern way to contextualise the content. I can’t wait to see the impact it has on the rapidly growing number of forward-thinking clinicians adding GBT to their portfolio of skills with EMS.“
