Ozone Therapy

At Eagle Dental Wellness Center, we use ozone, a naturally occurring form of oxygen, to help disinfect, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. Whether performing a teeth cleaning, placing a filling, treating gum disease, or providing post-extraction care, ozone therapy creates a cleaner environment in your mouth and supports your body's natural healing process.

What Is Ozone Therapy?

Ozone is a highly active form of oxygen that occurs naturally in the atmosphere. It has been studied for decades for its ability to fight harmful bacteria and support healing.

Using an ozone generator, Dr. John and Dr. Rodriguez deliver ozone as both gas and ozonated water, depending on the treatment. Ozone eliminates bacteria, viruses, and fungi without synthetic chemicals or antibiotics.

At Eagle Dental Wellness, ozone therapy enhances care across many procedures:

• During Cleanings and Gum Therapy — Ozonated water irrigates and disinfects below the gumline during routine cleanings or more intensive gum treatments. The sensation is similar to regular water irrigation.
• Before and After Fillings — Ozone gas applied directly to a tooth before placing a filling eliminates bacteria deep in the tooth structure. This step creates the cleanest environment for your restoration.
• After Tooth Extractions — Ozone water applied to the socket after extraction supports faster, more comfortable healing. This process is particularly valuable in biological extractions, where we also use PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) to promote bone regeneration.
• During SMART Protocol — After safely removing mercury amalgam fillings, we use ozone to thoroughly disinfect the tooth before placing your new biocompatible restoration. This step ensures no bacteria remain trapped beneath the filling.
• Supporting Implant Success — Ozone therapy helps create an optimal environment for dental implant healing by reducing bacteria and supporting natural healing around the implant site.

The application itself takes just seconds. When we use ozone gas, you typically won't feel anything because there's no heat, stinging, or discomfort. The gas is odorless at the concentrations we use in dentistry.
