Learning Why Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a Scalable Success

 HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY or HBOT Therapy is a treatment in which a patient breathes 100 percent pure oxygen at high pressures to promote healing. It was discovered by French physiologist and physician, Professor Etienne-Jules Marey, in 1854.

This treatment has been used for treating patients with conditions such as wounds that are not healing or heart attacks where the blood supply has been compromised. In today's society, however, this type of therapy is still used for those undergoing surgery or intensive care procedures that require an extended period of time under high levels of oxygen...

According to The Mayo Clinic Guide to Essential Oils and Aromatherapy, there are over 70 essential oils that have medicinal benefits. All oils also have benefits for our mental, emotional and physical health. With this in mind, I was interested in learning more about the benefits of HBOT therapy.

When we are in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber, the only type of oxygen used is the purest available: 100 percent pure oxygen. This type of oxygen has been known to have anti-inflammatory effects as well as help promote healing. The more time someone spends under pressure, the more time will be spent under a high level of gas like those that are found in this treatment.

In a study published in the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, it was found that when 30 people had hypoxic breast tissue removed using hyperbaric oxygen therapy they reported complete healing in 18 percent of them while over 68 percent reported a significant decrease in pain and swelling.

Other studies report that using this type of therapy has been found to help with conditions including but not limited to brain injuries, burns, acne scarring, scars and various other skin infections...

Crowns

  Crowns are caps that are placed on top of teeth that are damaged due to decay, broken teeth, birth defects and when endodontic treatment has been done.   Crowns are full cover restorations that cover, protect and in turn restore the shape of your teeth.   Crowns can be made from a variety of substances including metal, procelain, resin and ceramic materials.   Dr. Luong does not use stainless steel crowns as they are normally used as a temporary repair and are usually done on children under the age of 6 and done on their primary teeth.   He does use gold crowns, especially if a patient grinds his/hers teeth.   Gold crown are usually more expensive and we normally have to call the lab to find out the cost of gold on that date.   Many Insurance companies will not pay for the added cost of gold; therefore, it is passed on to the patient portion of the procedure. But if the crown lasts longer, even with the grinding, the long term cost outweighs the init...

Prophylaxis

  A dental prophylaxis or teeth cleaning is a procedure that is normally done by our hygienist. The hygienist will thoroughly clean your teeth and this is a preventative measure to stop the progression of periodontal disease and/or gingivitis. Normally most patients come every six months for their prophylaxis; however, some come more often due to periodontal issues, medical conditions (diabetes or autoimmune conditions) or the buildup of plaque occurs quicker than the norm. Once our patient is seated, our hygienist will go over their medical history. Certain medications can cause a dry mouth, which can affect your oral hygiene. Medical conditions and medications can also affect your oral health. Then a quick physical and visual exam of your mouth and neck is done to screen for oral cancer and anything that is evident. Radiographs are taken to assist in finding any oral problems that are not visible to the naked eye, such as decay or abscesses under the gumline. Perio probing i...

Endodontic Treatment AKA Root Canals

  Endodontic treatment is the treatment done by our general dentist, Dr. Luong.   It is the treatment of the soft pulp tissue inside the tooth.   It is usually done to save a tooth that would be extracted.   A root canal is needed when the pulp, which is the inside layer of the tooth or the canals which hold the pulp becomes inflamed and/or infected.   Most patients will experience throbbing pain that keeps them awake at night.   They might also have sensitivity to hot , cold and pressure.   There can also be swelling.   When a patient experiences the above symptoms, it is not uncommon for Dr. Luong to order a round of antibiotics to initially treat the infection.  The antibiotics not only treat the infection, but it helps with the inflammation and in turn expedites the numbing process to get the patient comfortable for their treatment. When you arrive at our dental office in Temple, Texas , you are checked in and asked to take a seat and...
