Chronic pain is not just a physical sensation. It is a persistent thief. It steals your energy, focus, and ability for daily life. For many, the common regimen of ice packs and over-the-counter pain relievers is a mere band-aid. This leaves the underlying cause untouched, which is systemic inflammation.
Now that functional medicine has come on the scene, patients want to look further down than the pharmacy aisles for long-term answers. One treatment that is becoming increasingly popular, as it offers such strong anti-inflammatory benefits, is DMSO IV Therapy.
But just what is this miracle molecule, and how did an ingredient once popular in the industrial realm become a cornerstone of 21st-century intravenous recovery? Here at Teethsavers IV Therapy, we are all about educating our clients on the science behind their wellness.
DMSO – Dimethyl Sulfoxide is an organic sulfur compound. First identified as a byproduct of wood production in 1963, DMSO was quickly recognized as an amazing solvent with the magic ability to permeate biological membranes. It doesn’t just rest on the skin or float in the bloodstream. It is a “molecular vehicle,” slipping through barriers behind which other compounds find themselves mired.
To understand why DMSO works so well for chronic pain, you’ll have to think about the mechanism on a cellular level. DMSO addresses pain through three primary mechanisms:
Inflammation is often induced by oxidative stress. When your body part gets injured or stressed, free radicals are released. The free radicals are unstable molecules that damage cells. DMSO is one of the most potent free radical scavengers known to science. Neutralizing these molecules stops the “inflammatory cascade” before it can damage your tissues further.
DMSO has a unique effect on the nervous system. According to studies, it has the potential to slow or halt the transmission of pain impulses in C-fibers, the nervous system fibers responsible for sending chronic aching signs of distress up to one’s brain. It is a natural analgesic and not addictive like opioids.
DMSO is often called “water’s smarter neighbor.” It changes the permeability of cell membranes, allowing water and nutrients to flow into starved cells more easily while helping metabolic waste products flush out. When delivered via IV, this process helps “rehydrate” inflamed tissues from the inside out.
While you can find DMSO creams widely available in several health stores, the intravenous route followed by Teethsavers delivers numerous advantages for those struggling with chronic conditions:
An IV bypasses the skin barrier and the digestive system. This helps it to deliver 100% of the compound directly into the plasma. Because of this process, DMSO IV can easily reach the lungs, heart, brain, and joints with maximum bioavailability.
In a clinical environment, your dosage is calculated according to the weight and sensitivity of your body. Thai ensures that the therapy is both effective and safe.
DMSO has the specificity to pull other beneficial substances with it. When it is combined with Magnesium or Vitamin C in an IV drip, DMSO helps these nutrients to enter your body cells more efficiently.
DMSO Therapy is frequently taken by patients suffering from:
At Teethsavers, your comfort is our priority. A DMSO IV Therapy session takes about 60-90 minutes on average.
A distinctive feature of DMSO is its “sulfur effect”. Because of the sulfur in DMSO, your breath and body will likely smell like garlic while you are on treatment and for a few days after. That’s totally normal and means the DMSO is moving through your system and being expelled. We recommend drinking plenty of water after your session to help rush the treatment through your system.
Chronic pain is a radio turned up too loud, drowning out all the other noise in your life. The DMSO IV works like a giant volume knob — turning down the chemical “noise” of inflammation so your body can repair.
If you are tired of the superficial and want to get down to the cellular benefits of DMSO, Teethsavers has you covered.

DMSO Therapy is safe when administered in a clinical atmosphere by knowledgeable professionals. It has been available as a medicine for more than 50 years. But it’s not for everybody. People with advanced liver or kidney disease require a physician’s advice for this treatment.
DMSO is broken down into dimethyl sulfide (DMS). This compound can be easily excreted through the breath and skin. Due to this mechanism, it causes a temporary oyster-like or garlic-like smell and taste. These tastes and smells usually fade within 48 hours.
Some patients might experience instant pain relief with the inflammation. However, 3 – 5 treatments are generally required for most chronic conditions. This process is done to get long-lasting results and significant improvements.
Yes. When you are on DMSO Therapy, there is no such “downtime. Most patients describe feeling relaxed, with an increased sense of well-being after treatment. But do be aware of the momentary smell of sulfur.
The only minor discomfort you will receive is the initial small needle prick for the IV line. Infusion is generally painless in itself. A small number of patients describe a warm feeling as the DMSO circulates in their blood.
