Introduction: Treating Gum Disease Without Harsh Chemicals

Gum disease (periodontitis) is one of the leading causes of tooth loss. Traditionally, antibiotics are prescribed—but they come with side effects. At Amore Dentistry, we use ozone therapy to naturally disinfect and heal gums.


How Ozone Works

Ozone gas (O₃) kills bacteria, fungi, and viruses by oxidizing their cell walls—while stimulating blood flow and immune response.


Benefits of Ozone for Gum Health

  • Disinfects pockets without antibiotics (Patel et al., 2011).

  • Reduces inflammation and bleeding gums.

  • Promotes tissue regeneration for healthier gums.

  • Safe and natural—no risk of bacterial resistance.


Applications in Periodontics

  • Scaling & root planing adjunct.

  • Perio pocket irrigation.

  • Surgical site sterilization.


Let's Heal Naturally

Ozone provides a safe, powerful, and holistic option for managing gum disease—helping patients heal without antibiotics.
