Revolutionizing Oral Health with Ozone Therapy at Shea Dental
Sep 30, 2024 11:00AM ● By Erica MillsIn the realm of holistic health, ozone therapy has emerged as a
powerful tool in dental care, offering an innovative approach to
addressing oral health challenges. At Shea Dental, this therapy is
utilized to provide patients with a safe and effective treatment option.
Dr. Josh Raiffe incorporates ozone therapy to support overall health
and extend the longevity of cosmetic dental procedures.
Ozone,
a naturally occurring gas composed of three oxygen atoms, is known for
its potent disinfectant and oxidizing properties. This positively
charged molecule combats harmful bacteria, infections and other
negatively charged elements in the body. By using ozone therapy, Shea
Dental aims to neutralize these threats, fostering a healthier and more
balanced oral environment.
Applications in Dentistry
Ozone
therapy is especially useful for addressing complex dental issues such
as failing root canals and cavitations. Failures in root canal
treatments often result from residual bacteria and toxins. Ozone therapy
provides a noninvasive method to penetrate deep into affected areas,
eliminating harmful microorganisms and promoting a sterile environment.
This approach can improve the success rate of root canal procedures and
lower the risk of future complications.
Cavitations,
which are areas of dead or decaying bone tissue, can lead to chronic
infection and inflammation in the jaw. Ozone therapy promotes
oxygenation and healing in these areas, contributing to better bone
health and less discomfort for patients.
Innovations in Cosmetic Dentistry
Shea
Dental also uses ozone therapy in cosmetic dentistry to maintain and
enhance the longevity of veneers. These cosmetic treatments improve the
appearance of teeth, offering a quick and effective way to achieve a
radiant smile. However, their durability can be affected by bacterial
growth and decay. By integrating ozone therapy into veneer procedures,
Dr. Raiffe ensures thorough disinfection of the underlying tooth
structure, providing a stable and healthy foundation for the veneers.
This approach not only prolongs the lifespan of veneers but also
supports overall oral health.
