What Is Ozone Therapy?
Ozone is an energized, naturally occurring form of pure oxygen. In a clinical dental setting, medical-grade ozone is utilized as a potent, natural antimicrobial agent. Because pathogenic oral bacteria, viruses, and fungi are primarily anaerobic (thriving in oxygen-depleted environments), the transient exposure to active oxygen/ozone breaks down their cellular walls on contact, neutralizing infections naturally without disrupting healthy cells.
Ozone can be administered safely and painlessly in three forms depending on your treatment needs:
- Ozonated Water: Antimicrobial flush for cleanings, surgical sites, and gum pockets.
- Ozone Gas: Deep sterilization for root canals, cavities, and periodontal pockets.
- Ozonated Oil: Soothing topical application for fast tissue recovery.
