Lakewood area dentist explains the uses of ozone therapy

Many Lakewood area patients who visit the practice of Dr. Scott Stewart are introduced to a new and modern therapy that can be used in a variety of dental procedures. This treatment, called ozone therapy, is a developing area of dentistry that is often embraced by holistic dental practices. The uses of ozone therapy include the disinfection of teeth with cavities or those that are being prepared for root canal therapy. Dr. Scott Stewart of South Lakewood Dental has also used this treatment to assist patients with periodontal disease. Periodontal disease can cause bacteria in the mouth to be carried through the body, resulting in an increased risk for many medical problems including diabetes, higher risk of stroke, and even heart disease.

Ozone therapy can be used to provide a higher standard of care for patients dealing with infections. Ozone therapy can:

• Eliminate pathogens
• Increase circulation
• Provide immunity
• Restore proper oxygen metabolism
• Disinfect areas of concern
• Help patients with cavities, root canal therapy, and periodontitis
