Ozone Therapy Dentist in Fountain Valley
Advanced, Natural, and Minimally Invasive Care with Tammy Tran, DDS
At Tammy Tran, DDS, we are proud to offer Ozone Dentistry—a modern, holistic approach to treating and preventing dental issues using the natural power of oxygen. If you’ve heard of ozone in the context of the Earth’s atmosphere, you may be surprised to learn that this form of oxygen (O₃) also plays a powerful role in fighting bacteria, viruses, and inflammation—making it a cutting-edge tool in dental care.
What Is Ozone Dentistry?
Ozone is a naturally occurring gas composed of three oxygen atoms. It has been used in medical and dental care for decades due to its antimicrobial and healing properties. In dentistry, ozone therapy allows us to eliminate harmful bacteria in the mouth without the use of harsh chemicals or invasive procedures. This means less discomfort, faster healing, and fewer side effects.
Why Use Ozone in Dentistry?
At our Fountain Valley office, Dr. Tammy Tran incorporates ozone therapy as part of a commitment to minimally invasive and preventive care. Ozone helps sterilize and treat areas of the mouth that would otherwise require more aggressive treatments, helping patients preserve more of their natural teeth and avoid complications.
Some of the most common uses of dental ozone include:
- Treating periodontal (gum) disease
- Preventing and slowing down cavities
- Encouraging enamel remineralization
- Speeding up healing for cold sores or canker sores
- Cleaning and disinfecting during root canal therapy
- Removing bacteria from early-stage lesions and infections
How Ozone Therapy Works
Dr. Tran uses a specialized handpiece that gently delivers ozone gas to the targeted area. For tooth decay, ozone can be applied directly to the tooth to kill bacteria and start the remineralization process—often preventing the need for a traditional filling. For gum infections, a tray system may be used to deliver ozone to an entire arch of teeth and gums.
Ozone therapy is quick, safe, and painless, making it ideal for patients who are looking for a more natural approach to oral health. Depending on your needs, a series of treatments may be recommended to achieve the best long-term results.
A Holistic Approach to Dentistry
Dr. Tammy Tran believes in treating the whole patient—not just the problem. By using ozone therapy, we can often avoid unnecessary drilling, antibiotics, or surgery. Ozone Dentistry supports your body’s own healing mechanisms and is ideal for those seeking a more biocompatible and health-conscious dental experience.
