Hydrogen Peroxide as Daily Mouthwash

"On whether hydrogen peroxide can be used as a daily mouthwash"

People in recent times have studied the method of oral care. Among them, the use of hydrogen peroxide in oral cleaning is quite fascinating.

The chemical name of hydrogen peroxide is hydrogen peroxide, which has the ability to oxidize and sterilize. It is often wondered if it can be used as a daily mouthwash to improve oral health?

Some doctors say that hydrogen peroxide can be used for mouthwash in a short time, which can remove oral odor and kill some bacteria. Because it can decompose to produce new oxygen, this oxygen is highly oxidizing and can break the structure of bacteria, causing its death.

However, if you use hydrogen peroxide as a mouthwash every day, there may be disadvantages. Hydrogen peroxide is corrosive to a certain extent. If used for a long time, it may damage the oral mucosa. The oral mucosa is the barrier of the human body against external bacteria. If damaged, the bacteria are easy to invade and lead to oral diseases. And excessive use of hydrogen peroxide may cause imbalance of flora in the mouth. The bacteria in the mouth are symbiotic and perform their duties to maintain balance. Hydrogen peroxide sterilization has no choice. It also hurts the beneficial bacteria. If the flora is unbalanced, the oral self-cleaning function will be damaged.

To sum up, although hydrogen peroxide has a temporary effect on oral cleansing, it is not wise to use it as a mouthwash every day. The way of oral care should seek gentle and scientific methods to ensure long-term oral health.
