Ozone has a wide range of uses in dentistry. In our clinic, we benefit from ozone in all bleeding procedures, caries, advanced gum diseases, canal treatments and many more cases, from tooth extraction to cleaning of implant and NICO areas. Ozone has both an antimicrobial and blood circulation supportive effect in dental procedures. It can kill bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa without damaging the tissues inside the mouth. It helps to remineralize the initial superficial caries, that is, the natural repair mechanism of the body to work. In deep caries, it has the potential to penetrate into dentin and kill bacteria and stop the progression of caries. Thus, it reduces the risk of root canal treatment / tooth loss. In surgeries, it has benefits such as cleansing the area from germs and increasing blood circulation and immune system activity.
