| If you are looking for the latest advancements in cutting edge dentistry procedures then look no further than ozone dental therapy. This latest dental treatment uses ozone, which is a reactive oxygen molecule, to kill bacteria in less than a minute. |

How ozone therapy works:
|
| High concentrations of ozone will kill bacteria very quickly, and the agent is around a thousand times more powerful than other bacteria killing agents. Studies have shown that it only takes 10 seconds of ozone therapy to kill 99 percent of bacteria in a patient’s teeth including fungi and viruses. |
 |
| Dentists that do use ozone dental therapy claim that it is an excellent preventative measure in combating tooth decay. Decay and bacteria are identified in the areas of the teeth. This is then removed with a slow hand piece which removes the soft decay tissue and leaves the hardened tissue. A suction cup is then used to direct the ozone onto the desired area. With the bacteria completely eradicated the dentist will then place a special mineralisation agent onto the clean area that enables the healing of the tooth. |
| |
| Ozone is said to prevent further decay in your tooth and maximise the life span of dental work you have minimising the need for costly further treatment in the future. |
| |
| With the cavity prepped and clean the chosen restoration will be placed, in our case a natural looking restoration perfectly matched to your own tooth colour. |
