Compact Disinfection Units, Smile In Style

What is Ozone Dental Treatment?

Sime In Style has been using Ozonated water in  our Dental procedures since 2020. When ozone is dissolved into water it is a powerful agent capable of rapid disinfection and inactivation of viruses, bacteria, algae and molds. We use the Biosure Ozone units that are able to convert tap water into ozonated water at 4 parts per million for use in the Moonee Ponds and Sunbury practices.

What can ozonated water be used for?

Ozonated water can be used to

  • Provides cleaner water during dental treatment.
  • We run ozone through the waterlines of our dental chairs to prevent biofilm formation and blocking our equipment.
  • We run ozone through our laser, drills and dental hygiene scaling equipment to more effectively kill bacteria and also to inactivate biological entities in the aerosols which are produced during dental procedures. Examples of this are; the use of ozonated water to disinfect the canals during root canal therapy and the disinfection of periodontal pockets with gum disease.
  • As a powerful and fast acting pre-treatment mouth rinse
  • We can also clean and disinfect surfaces and equipment with ozonated water.

Smile In Style – A Holistic Dental Practice

Being a holistic dental practice located in Moonee Ponds and Sunbury, we have already incorporated the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT) safe amalgam removal protocols into our practice for the protection of patients, staff and the environment. This means we already have air purifiers and high-volume evacuation suction units to radically reduce aerosols, mercury vapour and pathogens in the air.

By incorporating ozone into the practice, it creates a safer environment for all during dental treatment procedures. It is also nice to use a substance that breaks down naturally to harmless water and oxygen components which do not harm the environment.

Can I use Ozonated water at home?

Yes, you can! For patients that have severe gum disease or problems with infection around implants, we recommend using an oral rinse tumbler that can be purchased in our practice for home use.  These tumblers use tap water to generate ozonated water at 1 part per million which is  highly effective at killing all fungi, bacteria, and viruses.  Patients may find the oral rinse tumbler as a useful home care adjunct to gain better oral health. Many patients are also using the ozonated water produced by the oral rinse tumbler with their Waterpiks for better home cleaning and disinfection results. If you would like to know more about ozone in dentistry, contact our Moonee Ponds rooms on 03 8400 4104 or our Sunbury rooms on 03 8001 6021.
