Ozone is a special type of gas that has been used for sterilization purposes for many years. It is an excited, activated form of oxygen. Each molecule of ozone has three oxygen atoms in it. It wants to become more stable, so it is eager to kick off that third molecule. When it does so, it begins a chemical reaction that is deadly to bacteria but harmless to human tissue.

Many cities use ozone to sterilize their municipal water supplies, and lots of food companies use it to sterilize fruits, vegetables, and bottled drinks. Its application in dentistry is not new, but only a handful of dentists have decided to invest in this safe, effective therapy.

During ozone therapy, we stop decay in its tracks by exposing a tooth to ozone gas. The ozone kills existing bacteria and even alters the environment so the bacteria cannot quickly return to cause further damage. It also prompts an accelerated remineralization process within the tooth (it helps to rebuild lost tooth enamel). It can thereby prevent the need for further dental treatment, such as fillings or more extensive procedures.

We can use ozone therapy to treat minor to medium tooth decay. Ozone is used for every filling and crown in our office - the prepared tooth receives ozone right before the filling or crown is placed to ensure the most sterile environment possible.

Ozone can also be used to treat periodontal (gum and tooth-supporting bone) disease. It is particularly effective at reaching and killing bacteria that live deep below the gum line causing inflammation and destruction.

Southern Laser Dentistry is pleased to offer the best biocompatible, holistic options for our patients. We offer holistic options in all of our procedures. All operatory procedures include ozone. Please scroll down to see what we offer.

Why all-ceramic material? The answer is easy: Tooth restorations made of all-ceramics do not contain metal. Therefore, light can shine through them as it does through natural teeth. All-ceramic materials stand out for their

Tooth fillings If a tooth is only partially damaged due to e.g. caries, a filling or so-called inlay is usually sufficient to fix it. An all ceramic inlay is a resistant ceramic filling which is used for smaller defects or decay. Dark fillings made of amalgam are a thing of the past. All-ceramic inlays cannot be distinguished from the natural tooth structure

Thanks to the most innovative ORMOCER technology by far the lowest polymerization shrinkage (1.25 % by volume) and particularly low level of shrinkage stress in comparison to all conventional restorative composites inert, so excellent biocompatible and extremely resistant to discoloration.

The KR Whitening System works by restoring your teeth youthful ability to absorb oxygen. The oxygen from the whitening gel is absorbed deeply into the tooth, dissolving and removing stain molecules. Whitening products have been clinically studied for more than three decades and safely used on millions of patients without harm to teeth or gums. KR Whitening is considered entirely safe.

Our bodies produce 100 times more hydrogen peroxide than you would place in a bleaching tray so using hydrogen peroxide for teeth whitening is a safe method. Should whitening gel escape the trays, the catalase which is an enzyme we produce, will destroy the perhydroxyl and hydroxyl radicals that peroxide breaks into.
