In order to maximize patient health and wellness, holistic dentists often use ozone gas in the everyday operations at their practices. According to Dr. Scott Silver, in Haddon Township, Ozone is a critical factor in a biological dental practice as it can safely re-mineralize teeth. A variety of methods are used to incorporate the benefits of Ozone for patients. All water for procedures is ozonated, including that delivered from high-speed drills and syringes. In addition, ozone gas is used in syringes to disinfect all teeth-requiring repair. This includes fillings, crowns and root canals.

If a patient comes in with an infection in the mouth, ozone gas can be injected as a therapeutic protocol. The gas can also help treat periodontal disease when it is applied through a custom mouth guard.
