Each molecule contains three oxygen atoms bonded together (the air we breathe is regular oxygen, wherein two atoms are bonded in each molecule). In dentistry, ozone can be applied to tissues in the mouth in a gel, gas, or liquid form. As the molecules break apart and convert to regular oxygen, they kill harmful bacteria and contribute to a faster, easier healing process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
