Ozone Therapy
We are very excited to offer what looks to be the future ‘state of the art’ treatment for our patients today.
Ozone is among the most misunderstood elements. It is often mistakenly referred to as a pollutant, and many people think it is unhealthy. In fact, the opposite is true. Ozone is a variation of oxygen, which has many therapeutic uses. Its benefits have been researched and documented extensively.
There also appears to be a healing reaction instituted by the body upon exposure to ozone. This will prove to be a very useful medicine to be used in many different situations by dentists.
Why ozone?
Ozone is a natural substance, which can often take the place of caustic chemicals and invasive techniques.
- Kills infective microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi on contact
- Improves blood flow
- Amplifies immune responses
- Speeds healing and decreases risk of post-surgical infections
The Procedure
We create customized trays, which connect to a machine that directly delivers therapeutic ozone. The upper tray is worn and connected to the machine for about 10-12 minutes, then the process is repeated for the lower tray. The entire procedure takes about 30 minutes.
Your trays are reusable and will be kept here in our office for future use, so you won’t need to have impressions taken every time.
How We Use Ozone
At Dentistry by Dr. David , ozone is used as part of, or an adjunct to, many treatments.
- Decay: cavities exposed to ozone gas will subsequently harden. Sometimes no drilling or filling required. For children, ozone is used before applying dental sealant
- Root Canal: teeth which up to now were so badly decayed that they required root canal treatment to repair, can now often be repaired, and the infection reversed, using this treatment. Also, utilizing the gas during treatment appears to increase the probability of obtaining a successful root canal.
- Periodontal (Gum Disease): Ozonated water, oil, and gas are used in combination in the office and at home to kill the bacteria responsible for gum disease.
Dr. David recommends ozone therapy along with teeth cleaning, to maintain optimal oral health - Infections of the jaw: failed root canals, cavitations (osteonecrotic lesions), or even failed implants can often times be healed by injecting ozone into the area. Tooth extractions and jaw surgeries may well be avoided!
