Ozone Therapy

Biological and Holistic Dentistry

Ozone Therapy in Sintra & Portimão

What is Ozone Therapy?

Ozone therapy is a medical treatment that harnesses the healing power of ozone (O₃) to enhance your body's natural ability to heal and regenerate. This safe, scientifically-backed therapy has been used in medicine for over a century and offers benefits for a wide range of health conditions — from dental recovery and chronic pain to immune support and anti-ageing.

At BioHealth, we integrate ozone therapy into our holistic approach to wellness, combining it with our biological dentistry and functional medicine practices for optimal patient outcomes. Ozone therapy is available at both our clinics in Sintra and Portimão.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is ozone therapy safe? Yes, when administered by trained medical professionals using proper equipment and protocols, ozone therapy is extremely safe with minimal side effects.

How many sessions will I need? Treatment plans vary based on individual needs. Most patients see benefits within 3–5 sessions, with some conditions requiring longer protocols.

Can ozone therapy be combined with other treatments? Absolutely. Ozone therapy enhances many of our other services, including biological dentistry, hormone therapy, and aesthetic treatments. Our team will advise on the best combination for your situation.

Is ozone therapy suitable for dental procedures? Yes, ozone therapy is particularly effective in biological dentistry, enhancing healing and reducing infection risk during and after dental procedures. It is used routinely at both our Sintra and Portimão clinics.

How much does ozone therapy cost? Treatment costs depend on the type and number of sessions required. Please contact us for a consultation, during which we will recommend a protocol and provide a clear cost estimate.

What is the difference between local ozone injections and IV ozone therapy? Local injections deliver ozone directly to a specific area — a painful joint, a surgical site, or an infected tooth — for targeted relief. IV ozone therapy delivers ozone into the bloodstream for systemic benefits such as immune support, detoxification and cardiovascular health. Many patients benefit from both approaches.

Is ozone therapy available at both clinics? Yes. Ozone therapy for dental and pain management applications is available at both our Portimão and Sintra clinics. IV ozone therapy and strength training are currently offered at our Sintra location.
