Potential Clinical Applications of Ozone Therapy in Dental Specialties-A Literature Review, Supported by Own Observations. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2023; 20:ijerph20032048. [PMID: 36767415 PMCID: PMC9915530 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph20032048] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2022] [Revised: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023]
Abstract
Apart from conventional treatment, dentists are increasingly relying on physical therapy modalities in their clinical practice. The aim of this literature review is to analyze the clinical relevance and potential uses of ozone in modern dentistry. The research question is geared towards detailing the multiple potential applications of ozone therapy in a range of dental specialties. Based on the available literature, accessed via the PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, and EBSCO databases, a detailed search of the electronic literature was performed for 2001-2022. Eligible studies were chosen according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, using keywords: ozone, ozone therapy, therapeutic applications, oxidants, dental disinfectants, oral medicine, physical therapy in dentistry. Out of 834 manuscripts, 273 studies were curated. A total of 70 publications were used in the final consideration. After assessing their quality, they were analyzed to determine the relevance and potential use of ozone in the various aspects of modern dentistry. Ozone therapy is used mainly as an adjunct to the primary clinical or pharmacological treatment. In some cases of oral mucosal disease, it has proven effective as a primary therapy. During the literature analysis, it was noted that ozone therapy in dentistry is a subject of ongoing research, and the results are not always consistent. The multitude of studies in the literature on the applications of ozone in dentistry reflects the search for its undiscovered physical therapeutic potential.

J Maxillofac Oral Surg 2022; 21:1119-1125. [PMID: 36896071 PMCID: PMC9989088 DOI: 10.1007/s12663-020-01486-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2020] [Accepted: 09/25/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim A comparative study of pain and healing in post-dental extraction sockets treated with ozonated water/oil and normal saline. Purpose The present study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of ozonated water/oil in reducing pain and enhancing healing and swelling following dental extractions and surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molars. Patients and Methods Clinical trial was conducted involving 50 individuals requiring two-stage bilateral removal of tooth of which 25 patients were for asymptomatic bilateral extractions and 25 patients for surgical removal of asymptomatic bilaterally similar impacted mandibular third molars. The patients were divided into two groups following a split-mouth design: In group I, sterile ozonated water was irrigated in the sockets after extraction for 2 min on study side and normal saline on the control side following extraction. In group II, transalveolar extractions/surgical extraction of impacted mandibular III molars were carried out under copious irrigation with sterile ozonated water on study side and normal saline irrigation on control side evaluated by independent observer on 2nd, 4th and 7th day for the efficacy of ozonated water/oil in reducing pain and enhancing healing in post-dental extraction sockets. Results The use of ozonated water/oil increased the healing rate in all extraction cases, except in 4% of cases in which they did not show any effect of healing in extraction sockets on 7th postoperative day. The use of ozonated water/oil did not show any effects on the healing rate in impaction cases in all postoperative days. The use of ozonated water/oil showed decreased incidence of pain in subjects of both extraction and impaction cases.

Application of Selected Nanomaterials and Ozone in Modern Clinical Dentistry. NANOMATERIALS 2021; 11:nano11020259.

Abstract
This review is an attempt to summarize current research on ozone, titanium dioxide (TiO2), silver (Ag), copper oxide CuO and platinum (Pt) nanoparticles (NPs). These agents can be used in various fields of dentistry such as conservative dentistry, endodontic, prosthetic or dental surgery. Nanotechnology and ozone can facilitate the dentist’s work by providing antimicrobial properties to dental materials or ensuring a decontaminated work area. However, the high potential of these agents for use in medicine should be confirmed in further research due to possible side effects, especially in long duration of observation so that the best way to apply them can be obtained.

Abstract
Ozone therapy has been in use since 1896 in the USA. As a highly reactive molecule, ozone may inactivate bacteria, viruses, fungi, yeasts and protozoans, stimulate the oxygen metabolism of tissue, treat diseases, activate the immune system, and exhibit strong analgesic activity. More recently, ozone has been used in veterinary medicine, particularly in buiatrics, but still insufficiently. Medical ozone therapy has shown effectiveness as an alternative to the use of antibiotics, which are restricted to clinical use and have been withdrawn from non-clinical use as in-feed growth promoters in animal production. This review is an overview of current knowledge regarding the preventive and therapeutic effects of ozone in ruminants for the treatment of puerperal diseases and improvement in their fertility. In particular, ozone preparations have been tested in the treatment of reproductive tract lesions, urovagina and pneumomovagina, metritis, endometritis, fetal membrane retention and mastitis, as well as in the functional restoration of endometrium in dairy cows and goats. In addition, the preventive use of the intrauterine application of ozone has been assessed in order to evaluate its effectiveness in improving reproductive efficiency in dairy cows. No adverse effects were observed in cows and goats treated with ozone preparations. Moreover, there is a lot of evidence indicating the advantages of ozone preparation therapy in comparison to the application of antibiotics. However, there are certain limitations on ozone use in veterinary medicine and buiatrics, such as inactivity against intracellular microbes and selective activity against the same bacterial species, as well as the induction of tissue inflammation through inappropriate application of the preparation.
