Periodontal disease forms when bacteria build up below your gum line and begin to cause problems for your health. At first, an infection takes the form of gingivitis. At this stage, preventive periodontal care will help, and you can fight to restore the health of your gums by brushing and flossing effectively. However, if the condition progresses, it can become more difficult to treat, which means you face greater risks for complications.
Ozone therapy gives us a means of fighting the harmful bacteria below your gum line without disrupting your mouth’s ecosystem. Not all of the bacteria that gather in our mouths are responsible for infections. Those that are not harmful can help sustain your well-being over time. With ozone therapy, oxygen is used to eliminate the harmful anaerobic microbes. This can lead to a positive change in your condition, helping you control your condition and avoid complications.
Ozone therapy is just one of many actions our practice is ready to take. Our office possesses laser technology that we can use to remove bacteria and infected tissues. These tools offer greater precision than manual tools that are sometimes used to manipulate your periodontal tissues. They also lead to shorter and easier healing periods. Another procedure we offer is PRP therapy, which uses platelet-rich plasma to encourage the growth of healthy gum tissues to confront the damage done by your infection.
