As part of our efforts to provide you with as many options as possible to improve your smile, we offer ozone therapy. Ozone (O3) is a naturally occurring gas that can be used to sterilize water for public consumption and can be utilized in swimming pools and air filtration systems. It can also be used to thoroughly clean fruits and vegetables. Ozone therapy also has medical uses, specifically in improving recovery and decreasing healing time following a treatment. We use ozone therapy to remove acid from areas of your mouth and destroy bacteria. Our dentists may use ozone therapy to address an oral or dental infection, and it can be utilized in the teeth whitening process. It is also effective for preventing the need for more invasive treatments. We may utilize this therapy to address:

• Tooth decay or infection
• Gum disease
• Sensitive teeth
• Infections in the jawbone
• Canker sores
• Cold sores

Ozone therapy can be a very beneficial and noninvasive way to treat or even prevent problems with your teeth and your overall oral health. If you are suffering from a smile problem and would like to meet with our dentists to learn more about this treatment, contact our office today. One of our team members will be happy to help you plan a visit.
