Ozone in Dentistry

Ozone (O3) is a supercharged, unstable oxygen (O2) molecule that contains an extra electron. that it wants to donate. Due to ozone’s properties, it is a very powerful oxidizer or pro-oxidant. Ozone is non-toxic when used properly and is generated in some of our immune cells. The oxidizing potential of ozone disrupts the membranes of viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites. Humans have enzymes in our membranes that protect us from cell membrane disruption.

Therapeutically, ozone gas can be use in dentistry to sterilize teeth surfaces prior to placing a filling, sealant, build up and crown. Ozone gas may also be used in patients who have periodontal disease, after cleanings, soft tissue inflammation or after extractions. We also provide ozonated olive oil in our practice which can be applied to areas of infection, inflammation and extraction sites.

Please contact our office if you have any questions about ozone in dentistry. (972) 772-7645
