Ozone Therapy
Supporting Healing in a Gentle, Biocompatible Way
At My Dentist, we’re always looking for ways to support your body’s natural healing processes — not override them.
Ozone therapy is one of the tools we use to do exactly that.
Ozone is a highly energised form of oxygen that has been studied for its ability to reduce harmful bacteria and support tissue healing when used appropriately in dental care.
Why We Use Ozone in Dentistry
- Your mouth is an ecosystem.
- When harmful bacteria dominate, it can contribute to decay, gum inflammation, and delayed healing.
- Ozone therapy allows us to gently target these areas and support a healthier oral environment — without relying solely on more aggressive approaches.
How It May Support Your Care
Depending on your individual needs, ozone may be used as part of your treatment to:
- Help reduce harmful bacteria in affected areas
- Support the management of early decay
- Assist in gum and soft tissue care
- Encourage healing after certain procedures
Every recommendation is made carefully and tailored to you.
A More Supportive Approach to Treatment
- For patients seeking a more wellness-aligned approach, ozone therapy can be a valuable adjunct to modern dentistry.
- It’s not a replacement for necessary dental treatment — but it can enhance how your body responds and heals.
What This Means for You
A dental experience that:
- Works with your body, not against it
- Supports balance within the oral microbiome
- Prioritises gentle, minimally invasive care wherever possible

Is ozone therapy safe?
When used appropriately in a controlled clinical setting, ozone therapy is considered safe. It is carefully applied by trained clinicians using medical-grade equipment.
Does ozone therapy replace fillings or other dental treatments?
No. Ozone therapy is an adjunct to care — not a replacement for clinically necessary treatment. If a tooth requires a filling or other procedure, we will always guide you accordingly.
Can ozone help with early decay?
In some early-stage situations, ozone may be used as part of a broader preventive approach. However, each case is different, and outcomes can vary.
Is ozone therapy painful?
Ozone application is generally gentle and well tolerated by patients. Most people experience little to no discomfort during the process.
Why haven’t I heard about this before?
Ozone therapy is used in some areas of dentistry, particularly in practices focused on minimally invasive and wellness-aligned care. It is not yet considered a standard approach across all dental clinics.
Is this a “natural” treatment?
Ozone is derived from oxygen, but in dentistry it is used as a medical treatment. Our focus is on using it thoughtfully as part of a biocompatible, evidence-aware approach to care.
How do I know if it’s right for me?
We assess your individual oral health, goals, and clinical needs before recommending any treatment. If ozone therapy is appropriate, we’ll explain how it fits into your overall care plan.
