Dr. Roland and her team are a small boutique dental practice that focuses on oral health and facial beauty in a holistic and healthy way. Their natural approach to dentistry will help you achieve maximum beauty and oral health using unique and minimally invasive techniques. Dental ozone is just one of the unique approaches to healthy dental care.
In today's world, we have many concerns including COVID-19. When coming to see Dr. Roland, you needn’t worry because we adhere to best practices in terms of health and safety.
Our two main points of emphasis:
1. Our dental practice incorporates dental ozone into our everyday care.
Why use dental ozone?
Ozone is in our water, in our air, and in gas form when needed. It is bactericidal; virucidal; fungicidal; and parasiticidal. Ozone comes from oxygen. Oxygen is our primary nutrient and protector. It absorbs harmful UV radiation and protects plants and animals. So ozone is a naturally occurring oxygen (O2), formed by an electrical discharge generator field, which helps oxygen carry an electrical charge and combines atoms to form O3. It becomes a powerful oxidizer to control anaerobic pathogens (pathogens that don't like oxygen). It actually kills bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites at a lower concentration than chlorine, and also kills much faster than chlorine, all without all the harmful residues.
There is so much evidence (Pubmed.com) that periodontal disease is associated with heart attacks, strokes, kidney disease, diabetes, preterm births, and prosthetic joint complications. The common link is inflammation!
So dental bacterial plaque that cause gum disease equals a biofilm, which can get into blood vessels and travel to rest of the body.
How does ozone work?
Many infections begin in the head, neck, and oral region that affect the rest of the body. Infections can be from bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites or a combo. This biofilm creates inflammation. Inflammation has a positive electrical charge. We mentioned before that oxygen/ozone accepts and carries an electrical charge. Ozone has a negative charge. So the biofilm and ozone attract one another and combine. The ozone then contacts the cell membrane of the biofilm and penetrates it (like peroxides do) and ruptures it.
Is ozone dangerous and harmful to humans?
We have electricity, heat, botox, lasers, and nitric oxide that could also be harmful, but at therapeutic levels, they are not! So ozone therapy at the therapeutic level with the correct dose is very safe! Hardly any side effects and no harmful residues. The body likes natural solutions and doesn't have to fight off all the residues and chemicals from traditional therapies.
2. Our focus of treatment.
We simply focus on getting the whole body healthy and not just the teeth. When a system is set up in balance, then it will work properly. We line up all the body parts, create a nice clear airway for breathing (simple element of life), and create a comfortable environment for chewing (so now you'll have better digestion, eliminating issues such as reflux). The teeth are addressed last. This creates life changing benefits in health, balanced growth, beautiful faces, and smiles.
And why is nasal breathing is so important?
And did you know proper tongue position will determine the proper drainage system of the brain?
When this is lacking, everything gets plugged up, can lead to enlarged tonsils and adenoids, and frequent respiratory illnesses may occur.
So the reality is that the way we treat boosts immunity! The happier the body, the stronger it is and it doesn't have to work hard and focus on things that disturb the system by trying to compensate for it. As it tries to compensate for things that lack in our system, it creates other potential problems in itself.
