• M A N A G E M E N T O F R O O T C A R I E S U S I N G O Z O N E • 40 OZONE CAN BE CONSIDERED AS an alternative management strategy for root caries. Recently, Baysan et al., (2000) reported that ozone application for either 10 or 20 s was effective to kill the great majority of microorganisms in primary root carious lesions (PRCLs) in vitro and this application for a period of 10 s was also capable of reducing the numbers of Streptococcus mutans and S. sobrinus in vitro. Beighton et al., (1993) have previously validated a root caries severity index and clinical diagnostic criteria for PRCLs. The Electrical Caries Monitor III (ECM III) has also been shown to correlate with PRCLs severity (Baysan et al., 2002).

In an experiment to investigate the bio-excitatory effect of ozone gas on the hatching of artemia cysts, it was found that limited blown ozone gas has an effect on significant increasing of the hatching time of artemia cysts, though artemia cycsts are very resistant to ozone. The cysts hatching were done intitialy using 50, 35, 15, 10 and 5 mg of ozone blowing into one-liter containers that las...

OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of an ozone delivery system, combined with the daily use of a remineralising patient kit, on the clinical severity of non-cavitated leathery primary root carious lesions (PRCL's), in an older population group. DESIGN A total of 89 subjects, (age range 60-82, mean +/- SD, 70.8 +/- 6 years), each with two leathery PRCL's, were recruited. The two lesions in each su...
