Hydrogen Peroxide for Mouth Cuts

On the advantages and disadvantages of using hydrogen peroxide for oral wounds
Or ask: "If there are wounds in the oral cavity, can hydrogen peroxide be used?" This matter is related to health and cannot be ignored.

Hydrogen peroxide has strong oxidative properties and is beneficial for cleaning wounds. In case of catalase in the tissue, it decomposes and releases new oxygen. This oxygen can kill common bacteria, spores and other microorganisms, and can purify the oral filth and prevent wound diseases. And in minor wounds, it can remove surface foreign bodies and secretions and promote healing.

However, its use also has disadvantages. Oral mucosa is delicate, and if the concentration of hydrogen peroxide is improper, it will hurt. High concentrations can cause mucosal burns, pain, redness and swelling, and delay wound healing. In addition, excessive use of hydrogen peroxide may break the balance of flora in the mouth. The inherent flora of the mouth coexists harmoniously to protect oral health. Hydrogen peroxide sterilization is not selected, and beneficial bacteria are also killed. If the flora is unbalanced, other diseases may occur.

Therefore, if there is a wound in the mouth, use hydrogen peroxide. When considering the situation. For minor superficial injuries, you can wipe them with low-concentration hydrogen peroxide, and use them for a short time, and then rinse them with water. If the wound is deep or the situation is unknown, you must not use it without authorization. Seek medical attention as soon as possible and listen to the doctor's advice to ensure health.
