Ozein is Greek literature word from which the word ozone has derived, which means odor and was first coined in 1840 by German chemist Christian Friedrich Schonbein, who is known as ‘‘The father of ozone therapy”.(1) Ozone is found in nature consisting of three oxygen atoms (O3), a higher energetic form than normal atmospheric oxygen (O2).(2) Ozonated water is recognized to have an antiseptic, powerful oxidative and strong antimicrobial property towards bacteria, fungi, viruses and protozoa.[3]. Ozone in its aqueous phase as compared to its other phases has benefits that are its potency, lack of mutagenicity, rapid microbicide effects and simplicity of handling.[4]. Oxygen/ozone therapy has been researched for clinical and therapeutic uses on humans
Fisch for disinfection and wound healing during dental surgeries.[5]. Ozone has been advocated for treatment of gingival infection by Sandhaus in 1969 and root caries by Bayson et al, in 2000.(4) Ozone has so many applications[6,7,8,9,10] in dental practice like bleaching, vital tooth canal therapy, in hypersensitive tooth, necrotic root canal therapy, re-mineralization of root caries, dental water unit disinfection and this article principally emphasis on its endodontic application as root canal disinfectant
