Hydrogen Peroxide and Plaque
On the relationship between hydrogen peroxide and dental plaque
Modern physicians have studied the effect of hydrogen peroxide on dental plaque. With dental plaque, the product formed by the accumulation of bacteria in the mouth, attached to the tooth surface, is often the cause of dental caries, gingivitis and other diseases.
Hydrogen peroxide has strong oxidizing properties and can release new oxygen in the oral environment. This new oxygen can break the structure and metabolism of bacteria, making it difficult for bacteria to survive. If an appropriate amount of hydrogen peroxide is used to rinse the mouth cavity, it can be exposed to dental plaque, which can damage the cell wall and membrane of the bacteria, causing the leakage of substances in the bacteria and causing the inactivation of the bacteria. And it can disturb the enzyme system of the bacteria, block its metabolic pathway, and restrict the growth and reproduction of the bacteria.
Be careful when using it. If the concentration of hydrogen peroxide is too high, although it has a strong ability to sterilize plaque, it is easy to hurt the oral mucosa, causing mucosal redness, swelling and pain. It is necessary for users to follow the doctor's advice, control the concentration and use.
From the perspective, hydrogen peroxide is indeed effective in the treatment of dental plaque. It is necessary to weigh the pros and cons when using it, so as to achieve the best effect and avoid its harm.
