Ozone therapy uses medical-grade ozone to support the body’s natural healing processes. Safe, effective, and versatile, it’s ideal for a wide range of treatments.
Ozone is a naturally occurring molecule that works with the body's innate ability to heal, making it a safe and organic approach to wellness.
Patients value addressing the underlying causes of health issues (e.g., infections, inflammation) rather than simply treating symptoms.
Ozone therapy's ability to boost immunity, reduce inflammation, and support overall health aligns perfectly with a whole-body wellness philosophy.
The absence of harsh chemicals and reliance on naturally generated ozone makes it appealing as a non- toxic, safe alternative to conventional treatments.
Proactive health maintenance through pathogen reduction and enhanced tissue healing resonates strongly with consumers focused on long-term well-being.

Ozone therapy is safe when used by a professional at the proper concentrations. Ozone has been in use in dentistry since 1930, much longer than many other common medical treatments.
Ozone therapy is used regularly in South America. The European Union has very stringent standards for medical treatments and has also approved ozone for dental use.
The side effects of ozone therapy are upper respiratory irritation and cough, most commonly. Side effects are rare with dental ozone therapy. If you’re concerned about side effects, talk to your dentist.
Like many therapies, ozone therapy does carry a risk if it’s misused. Inhaling concentrated ozone can irritate the throat and even cause lung damage. The chances of this happening in a dentist’s office are extremely low, however.
The primary difference between ozone and oxygen is that ozone is made up of 3 oxygen atoms, and pure oxygen gas is made up of 2. Oxygen is present in large amounts in the air we breathe, unlike ozone.
In general, ozone dental treatments are quick and painless. Here’s what will happen when you come in for your treatment:
Almost everyone is a good candidate for ozone therapy. Ozone therapy is an excellent option for people who have a strong aversion to traditional dental therapies like rotary drills or suffer from dental anxiety. Ozone therapy can also be a suitable choice for patients with reactions to dental anesthetics. Although most people have no issues with these numbing agents, a few do have adverse reactions. If cavities are small enough for ozone therapy, no anesthesia is needed.
Ozone dental treatment works best on relatively minor tooth decay and small cavities. If you have a cavity that reaches deep into the tooth’s dentin or even the pulp, ozone therapy will not be the best choice for you. Your dentist will tell you if your cavities are treatable with ozone. If you have asthma or other breathing problems, you should talk to your dentist to make sure ozone dental treatment is best for you. As with any treatment plan, let your dentist know about any other potential interactions as well.
Your oral health has a tremendous impact on your overall health and wellness. Choosing natural, holistic dental treatment modalities is vital to avoid filling the mouth with toxins.
