Combat Disease Transmission By
Mouth Guard Wear
|
|
Life threatening infections/inflammatory diseases can
be transmitted by the large number of molds, bacteria
and yeasts found living in mouth guards, according to
a case study done by Thomas Glass, DDS, PhD,
published by the Academy of General Dentistry, in an
issue of General Dentistry.
This study published two case studies, both detailing
the clinical history of two junior high football players
- one had cellulitis of the leg after a non-break injury
and one had acute exercise induced asthma with
uncontrollable symptoms. In both cases, the athletes
wore mouth guards that were contaminated with the
microorganisms that were considered to be the reason
for their illness.

"The two cases presented in
this article strongly implicate
disease transmission by
mouth guard wear,"
- Dr. Glass reported.

|
Often tossed in a bag with germ-laden clothing and
equipment, mouth guards are often not cleaned properly,
if at all. Glass further explained that they had not yet
found an acceptable decontamination method for these
mouth guards because mouth guards, like night guards
and dentures, are very porous.
"While mouth guards appear solid, they are very porous,
like a sponge, and with use, microorganisms invade
these porosities," said Glass.
Washing or boiling the mouth guard isn't enough to get
rid of all of the bacteria, the study concluded and further
implicated that mouth guards may need to be single-use
appliances...Until now.
Independent testing confirms that Brain-Pad Inc's
product, The Disinfector™ sanitizes any oral appliance
by creating millions of ozone ions that grab and neutralize
99.9% of these known bio-pathogens in only three minutes.
Other UV only products on the market may taut similar
findings, but The Disinfector™ also combines the natural
sanitizing and deodorizing properties of ozone that
surround and permeate through the porosity of oral
appliances.

The Simple Truth of Ozone -
How It Could Save Your Life
|
|
Healthy human cells love oxygen. Disease causing viruses,
bacteria, fungi and parasites, including HIV and cancer
virons, are almost exclusively anaerobic, which means
they cannot live in oxygen. So, is there a form of oxygen
that could kill off these bio-pathogens? Yes, ozone.
According to Ed McCabe, recognized authority on ozone
and oxygen therapy, ozone is one of the most beneficial
substances on the planet. It is comprised of three atoms
of oxygen. When oxygen rises up into the atmosphere,
and arrives in the region of the ozone layer, it collides
with the sun's photochemical energy in the form of ultra-
violet (UV) rays. This bombardment changes the oxygen
from 02, two atoms of stable oxygen, into 03 - three
atoms of unstable, active oxygen. This pure form of
oxygen is called "ozone", 03 Ozone.
Ozone then falls to earth and is all around us purifying
our water and air, killing bacteria and molds. We can't
see ozone, but we can feel it. Ozone is the fresh air by
a clean seashore. The smell of laundry dried outdoors in
the country. The sweet smell of the air after a lightning
storm.
"It has been proven extensively that 03 Ozone, will kill
bacteria, viruses, fungi and molds by attaching, oxidizing
and eliminating them. Oxidizing means to burn without
giving off life or heat," says McCabe.
If ozone is so good, why is ozone found in smog? Just as
ozone fights to decompose harmful germs in our drinking
water, ozone fights to rid our breathing air of toxins. When
pollutants enter the air, ozone is released to combat the
smog and break it down. This is why ozone is found in smog.
The more smog, the more ozone. Ozone is constantly
working to purify.

According to:
Ozone International LLC,
ozone has these important Properties:
|
- Kills bacteria 3100 times faster than chlorine.
- Is chemical-free and produces no dangerous
by-products.
- Is the most powerful microbiological control
agent available.
- Virtually eliminates need for chemical usage.
- Has full FDA approval for direct food contact.

Most European and many American cities purify their municipal
drinking water by bubbling ozone through it to kill all of the bacteria &
viruses, etc. Since humans are 66% water, the same principals would
apply. Ozone can be infused through your body liquids to sterilize and
purifythem.
Thousands of European doctors regularly use ozone therapy. Doctors
using the proper concentrations and correct medical protocols have
achieved substantial positive clinical results with ozone. Organisms
killed by ozone have become familiar household names: STREP,
Salmonella, Listeria, MRSA, C-Diff, Hepatitis A, Rotavirus and HIV.
Yes, HIV.
