Holistic or biological dentistry emphasizes supporting the body’s natural healing
processes while minimizing exposure to toxins and invasive treatments. Ozone therapy fits this philosophy because it:
- Kills pathogens (bacteria, viruses, fungi) without antibiotics or harsh chemicals.
- Improves blood circulation and oxygen delivery to tissues.
- Stimulates the immune system and tissue regeneration naturally.
What Is Ozone Therapy in Dentistry?
Ozone is a form of oxygen that has an effective role in the management of oral diseases

Ozone has been successfully used in medicine for over 100 years due to its microbiological qualities.
Ozone therapy has shown promise in reducing oxidative stress and improving periodontal health.
Forms of Ozone Used
- Ozonated water: For rinses, irrigation, and disinfection.
- Ozone gas: Applied directly to treatment sites via silicone cups.
- Ozonated oils (e.g., olive oil): For home use to promote healing and reduce inflammation.
Benefits
- Antimicrobial without antibiotics.
- Reduces post-operative pain and inflammation.
- Enhances soft and hard tissue healing.
- Balances oral microbiome.
- Safe and biocompatible with no chemical residues.
Considerations & Safety
Must be administered by trained professionals with precise dosage control
