This is an ozone gas generator developed by the Austrian company W&H. The main purpose is to produce ozone in a focused area for therapeutic purposes. Ozone has a very strong antibacterial and disinfecting effect.

Ozone therapy is a revolutionary technology in modern dentistry and serves as an excellent addition to traditional methods of treatment.

The main properties of ozone are the destruction of bacteria and viruses in the oral cavity which makes it possible to effectively use this device in therapeutic dentistry.

 

The principle of operation

Air is supplied to the device by a pump. Then the air passes through the filter to clean and remove moisture from it. Purified and dry air is supplied to the generator, where under the action of an electric current, ozone of the exact concentration and dose is produced. With the help of a special tip ozone is supplied between the tip and the affected area. Due to diffusion ozone easily penetrates into the soft tissues of the oral cavity as well as to a small depth of hard tissues. Depending on the clinical application, there are four dosages of exposure by time (6, 12, 18 or 24 seconds).
