O3 dentistry is a relatively new approach to dental care and is gaining popularity. It is an innovative technique using O3 gas to treat and prevent oral health issues, including cavities, gum disease, and even tooth sensitivity. In this article, we’ll look at O3 dentistry and how it works.
What is O3 dentistry?
O3 dentistry is a holistic approach to dental care that uses O3 gas to treat and prevent oral health issues. It means one extra oxygen molecule attached to natural oxygen, which is O2. O3 is called ozone, and unlike regular oxygen (O2), it has an extra oxygen molecule attached to it. When used in dentistry, it is applied to the affected area using a special wand or syringe. Below is a summary from the National Library of Medicine regarding O3 dental treatment:
Treating patients with this therapy lessens the treatment time and it eradicates the bacterial count more specifically. The treatment is painless and increases the patients’ tolerability with minimal adverse effects.
How does O3 work in dental treatments?
O3 gas works in dental treatments by targeting and killing harmful bacteria and viruses in the mouth. When applied to the affected area, the gas penetrates the tooth and gum tissue, neutralizing harmful microorganisms and promoting healing. It also has anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce swelling and pain associated with oral health issues. Additionally, it is a safe and non-invasive alternative to traditional dental treatments, making it an attractive option for patients seeking a more holistic approach to dental care.
What are the benefits of O3 dentistry?
O3 dentistry offers a range of benefits for patients seeking a more natural and holistic approach to dental care. Some of the key benefits of this dentistry include its ability to kill harmful bacteria and viruses in the mouth, promote healing and reduce inflammation, and provide a safe and non-invasive alternative to traditional dental treatments. It can also help prevent future oral health issues by strengthening the teeth and gums and promoting overall oral health.
What types of dental issues can we treat with O3 gas?
We use O3 gas to treat various dental issues, including cavities, gum disease, root canal infections, and even bad breath. This dentistry treatment has also proven helpful in treating other conditions associated with the tissues in and around the mouth, including sinus infections and lesions caused by viruses and fungi.
Final words
O3 dentistry has been used in medical and dental applications for over a century and has a proven safety track record. Additionally, O3 dentistry is highly effective in treating oral health issues, often with faster healing times and fewer side effects than traditional treatments. It is a non-invasive and painless approach to dental care that can benefit patients of all ages.
