Reasons Why You Should Opt For Dental Ozone Therapy

 

We all want that to wear that beautiful smile and a healthy mouth. Having dental problems is one of the issues that almost all people would want to avoid. Aside from the pain, it’s too risky dealing with these issues when interacting with people. Dental problems such as bad breath, infections, and cavities need a dentist’s attention immediately.

Are you looking for a less invasive holistic dental therapy that promotes natural healing? If so, you'll want to read more about dental ozone therapy's incredible benefits. 

 

What is Dental Ozone Therapy?

Ozone is simply a supercharged version of oxygen that has a unique disinfectant property. This inhibits the growth of several kinds of bacteria that are responsible for periodontal disorders, dental discomfort, and tooth decay.

When your holistic dentist wants to clear out certain parts of the mouth, he or she will employ ozone dental treatment. Your dentist will use a specialized ozone machine to deliver a blast of ozone to effectively destroy any harmful organisms or bacteria.

Ozone may be used in the following ways:

·         using a liquid 

·         in a gaseous state

A consultation with Dr. Sonia Olivares may help you determine if it might be useful to include ozone treatment into your oral health regimen.

 

How is Ozone Used in Dentistry?

Dental Ozone Therapy is rapidly gaining popularity as one of the most effective treatment modalities available in dentistry today. This conservative and least intrusive method of dental care may be used to:

·         Eliminate infections and cavity-causing germs

·         Gum infections may be treated and bone repair can be aided

·         Reduce sensitivity of the teeth

·         Bad Breath Treatment in iSmile Doral and iSmile Gables

 

When is Ozone Used in Dentistry?

This conservative and least intrusive method of dental care can be used for both children and adults. It is often helpful in treating:

·         Gum Disease - by administering ozonated water and/or ozone gas to the gums and surrounding tissues, the healing process may be accelerated.

·         Root Canal Therapy - Ozone may be utilized in a variety of ways during root canal treatment, including sanitizing the canal system, stimulating faster healing, and eliminating germs. Because ozone is a gas, it may reach parts of the tooth that would be impossible to treat otherwise, resulting in a more sterile system.

·         Decay - Ozone eliminates germs on contact and may penetrate into hard-to-reach places under the gum line and into the grooves of teeth.

·         Sensitivity– ozone gas may be used to harden the structure of a sensitive dental location, resulting in much lesser sensitivity.

·         Promote healing– after a tooth extraction or other treatment that results in stress to the oral tissue, ozonated gas may be administered to the region to kill germs and stimulate the healing response.

 

Does Ozone Therapy Really Work?

For patients who prioritize safe, comfortable, holistic dentistry, oxygen/ozone therapy is a wonderful solution for healing oral infections and promoting better dental and overall health. The benefits of this technology are many — some of the most common are listed below.

·         The oxidative burst promotes better, faster healing.

·         The therapy reduces or eliminates the need for drilling, healing infection from tooth decay (filling cavities).

·         There is significant scientific evidence to support the use of oxygen/ozone therapy for infection control in dentistry.

 

Is Dental Ozone Therapy Safe?

Ozone therapy is considered safe when used in line with the approved indications, dosage, and administration. In reality, just the quantity of dental ozone required for therapy will be produced, maintaining very low concentrations. Additionally, medicinal ozone often has a half-life of less than 30 minutes due to its short half-life. What is not consumed will return to oxygen, leaving the environment with no lingering ozone. Dental ozone is often used in place of antibiotics due to its potent antibacterial effects. When administered appropriately, ozone therapy is regarded as a healthy treatment with reliable and safe results.

 

What are the Side Effects of Ozone Therapy?

Before starting ozone treatment, it is important to speak with Dr. Sonia Olivares about her uses of ozone in dentistry. Although ozone treatment will be provided safely, patients should be aware of any possible risks associated with it in order to prevent them. Doses and concentrations, as well as suitable delivery strategies, are critical for a safe and successful therapy. Dental ozone treatment has minimal negative effects, however patients should be aware of a few contraindications.

For very sensitive individuals, accidental inhalation may lead to minor symptoms like burning of eyes, coughing, nausea or vomiting, or mild headache. But aside from that, there are no reported major side effects of using ozone therapy.
