Ozone therapy in dentistry: clinical experiences

Piermarco Babando¹

Abstract: The aim of the paper is to investigate in depth how the entry of ozone gas into clinical dental practice can modify common procedures by involving both equipment and clinical procedures. After a careful bibliographic review, clinical proposals for surgical, implant and periodontal treatment are described.

“…Among all these usages, ozonized water (aqueous form) is the most common in periodontal therapy. 10 Few studies have also reported contradictory findings. 11 Hence, subgingival irrigation with ozonized water in periodontal pockets along with scaling and root planing in chronic periodontitis needs to be evaluated further.…”

Periodontitis is the destructive inflammatory disease of the supporting tissue of the teeth resulting in formation of periodontal pocket, gingival recession or both. Ozone (O3) is a triatomic molecule having disinfectant, antimicrobial and healing properties and has shown promising results in the treatment of periodontitis. The present study evaluated the usefulness of ozone water as an adjunct in non-surgical periodontal treatment. Materials and Method:In this split mouth study, 21 sites each of periodontal pockets (≥ 4mm) in patients with chronic periodontitis were randomly divided into two groups; SRP followed by irrigation with ozonated water test site and SRP followed by irrigation with distilled water (control site).The clinical parameters including plaque index, gingival index, periodontal probing depth and clinical attachment level (CAL) were recorded at baseline and 4 weeks recall. Result: Both the groups (test & control) showed improvement in all the recorded parameters (PI, GI, CAL, PPD) while the test group showed statistically significant reduction in all the clinical parameters compared to control group (p < 0.05). Conclusion:A single subgingival irrigation with ozonated water can be effectively used as an adjunct to SRP in non-surgical management of chronic periodontitis.

An extensive and interdisciplinary literature review was carried out to evaluate the uses of synthetically produced ozone in many different application areas. The objective of the study was to investigate the disinfectant and purifying effectiveness of this natural compound and evaluate its use as an economically and environmentally sustainable alternative to treatments that often involve the adoption of pharmaceutical agents. Being a natural substance, the potential environmental sustainability of the use of ozone in areas such as water disinfectant; pesticide action in agriculture; and antibiotic, anti-inflammatory and antiviral actions in animal husbandry and fish farming are of interest. In addition to environmental sustainability, economic sustainability is also important for companies employing ozone in their processes. Thus, a case study was proposed that represents the use of ozone in a pilot swine farm located in Northern Italy, both as an alternative to pharmaceutical drugs for the animals and as an air and water purifier. The case study demonstrates the economic sustainability of ozone use, especially in the medium run, along with its ability to reduce animal mortality (by about 2%), as well as decrease use of pharmaceutical antibiotics.
