What is Ozone Therapy?
Ozone therapy is a safe and effective treatment that utilizes ozone gas to disinfect, heal, and regenerate tissues in the oral cavity. Ozone, a naturally occurring gas, has powerful antimicrobial properties that make it highly effective in killing bacteria, viruses, and fungi, while stimulating the body’s natural healing processes. Those bacterias are inside your roots ( when you need a root canal or have dental pain) gum, ( when you have gum disease and need a deep cleaning, mouth and on your teeth (plaque)
At our practice, we integrate ozone therapy into various aspects of dental care, including:
- Cavity Treatment: Ozone therapy can be used to disinfect and remineralize teeth affected by cavities, helping to halt the progression of decay and preserve healthy tooth structure. We have an ozone machine that makes fresh ozone every 2 hours.
- Gum Disease Management: Ozone is an invaluable tool in the treatment of gum disease. It effectively kills bacteria that cause periodontal infections and promotes gum tissue regeneration, leading to healthier gums and a reduced risk of tooth loss.
- Root Canal Therapy: Dental ozone therapy is utilized during root canal treatment (dental infections and management of dental pain) to disinfect the root canal system and eliminate harmful bacteria, reducing the risk of reinfection and enhancing the success rate of the procedure.
- Oral Surgery: Ozone therapy can accelerate the healing process following oral surgery : This includes procedures such as extractions, implant placements, and soft tissue surgeries, minimizing discomfort and promoting optimal outcomes. Ozone is used to rinse out or to flush the infected areas with a dental device.
- Teeth Whitening: Ozone can be used in conjunction with teeth whitening treatments to enhance results and reduce sensitivity, leaving you with a brighter, more radiant smile. Note Ozone must be fresh and made in the office every 2 hours!
Benefits of Ozone Therapy:
- Non-Invasive: Dental ozone therapy is non-invasive and does not require the use of chemicals or antibiotics, making it a safe and natural treatment option for patients of all ages. It is clear, non toxic, doesn’t stain, has no preservatives and no artificial colors like Chlorhexidine (Peridex)
- Minimally Disruptive: Ozone therapy is gentle on the surrounding tissues, minimizing discomfort and promoting faster recovery times. It is biocompatible and can be swallowed.
- Promotes Healing: By stimulating circulation and promoting oxygenation, ozone therapy helps to accelerate the body’s natural healing processes, allowing for faster recovery and improved outcomes.
- Preventive Care: Ozone therapy can be used proactively to prevent the development of dental problems, helping you maintain optimal oral health for years to come. Please inquire and consult with Dr. Goodman.
