Can someone tell me more about Ozone dentist treatment?

Question

And is it safe on children with dental decay?

Answer 1

Ozone is a gas found naturally in the atmosphere. This gas kills bacteria, viruses and fungi within 5 seconds and because of this it is often used to control infections in hospitals. That also makes it very useful in dentistry for killing the bacteria that cause decay and gum disease.

During this revolutionary new treatment, a small laser determines whether decay-forming bacteria are present in a tooth, and if they are, a small handheld unit delivers the ozone to the spot, where it kills the bacteria instantly. A special mineral-rich liquid is then applied to the area, helping to reverse the decay process. And that's it - there are no injections, fillings, drilling or damage to your teeth!

When you leave the surgery, we give you a special toothpaste and mouthwash, which help the repair process, and we bring you back for a check on the tooth after three months. Research shows that in 96% of cases, the decay had stopped or reversed. With ozone treatment, the need for drilling and filling is drastically reduced, and may revolutionise dentistry.
