ozone exposure reduces pyruvate in saliva, potentially slowing tooth demineralization
Ozone treatment of human saliva caused marked, reproducible reductions in salivary pyruvate concentration via oxidative decarboxylation to acetate and carbon dioxide, potentially suppressing tooth demineralisation.
What this means for you
Pyruvate in saliva acts as a fuel source for the bacteria that erode tooth enamel. When ozone reduces pyruvate levels, it may help slow the chemical process behind early tooth decay — supporting stronger, healthier enamel over time without drilling or harsh chemicals.
