Mouth
Ulcers & Healozone
It is estimated that 1 in 5 people suffer from mouth
ulcers. The incidence is probably higher in younger
age groups, especially teenagers.
What are mouth ulcers?
Mouth ulcers are small painful sores that occur on the
tongue or the lips and cheeks. They can range from a
small size (minor) to large lesions up to 10 mm. across
(major). Then occur singly or in clusters.

What causes mouth ulcers?
No single cause has been found for mouth ulcers. Traumas
such as cheek biting, orthodontic braces, etc., are
an obvious cause. But certain ulcers form for no apparent
reason. Usually being “run down” will lead
to a higher incidence of mouth ulcers.
Are they contagious?
No, commonly occurring mouth ulcers are not passed on.
What treatment is there for mouth Ulcers?
There is no actual “cure”. The only treatments
are:
- To obtain relief from pain
- To reduce the infection and so speed up healing
Mouth Ulcers and Healozone

Patient
KB's diary:
Day 1.
Ozone applied for 40 secs. "Pain subsided immediately."
Day 2. "Ulcer still there
but there is no pain or discomfort."
Day 3. "Ulcer is less visible
but there is no pain."
Day 4. "Ulcer is barely visible,
no pain." |
Healozone is being used by “Pathfinder”
Dentists to reduce the infection and to speed up the
healing.
Research is still being documented so this data is subjective
to personal experience at Dental
Clinique.
Early indications show that pain relief occurs rapidly
(within 12-24 hours) and that healing time is dramatically
reduced (within 48 hours is average)
How can I obtain this treatment and how
much will it cost?
Treatment involves the painless application of Healozone
onto the lesion.
