Ozone Therapy in La Jolla

At La Jolla Dental Wellness Center, we are proud to offer ozone therapy, an innovative and natural approach to dental care that harnesses the power of medical-grade ozone (O3) to eliminate harmful bacteria, reduce inflammation, and promote faster healing. As a leader in biological and holistic dentistry, we integrate ozone therapy into various treatments to ensure optimal oral and systemic health for our patients.

What is Ozone Therapy in Dentistry?

Ozone therapy is a minimally invasive, non-toxic treatment that uses oxygen-based ozone gas to disinfect and heal the mouth. Ozone is a powerful antimicrobial agent that destroys harmful bacteria, viruses, and fungi, making it an excellent alternative to conventional antibiotics and chemical disinfectants. This oxygen-rich therapy enhances tissue regeneration and improves overall dental wellness.
