Hydrogen Peroxide Teeth Rinsing Safety

On the safety of peroxide rinsing and teeth cleaning
Nowadays, when it comes to rinsing and teeth cleaning with peroxide, many people have doubts about its safety.

Hydrogen peroxide, the chemical name is hydrogen peroxide, is widely used in life. It is said that it can be used for oral cleaning, but the safety of its use cannot be ignored.

If used in moderation and at an appropriate concentration, hydrogen peroxide does have certain benefits. Low-concentration hydrogen peroxide can be decomposed in the mouth to produce new oxygen. This oxygen has the ability to sterilize and disinfect, which can remove some bacteria in the mouth and reduce bad breath. The effect of teeth cleaning can also be seen. For example, low-concentration hydrogen peroxide for medical use is often used by doctors to assist in the treatment of local inflammation in the mouth.

However, if used improperly, its harm is also clear. High concentration of hydrogen peroxide, with strong oxidizing, if used directly to gargle, easy to hurt the oral mucosa. Mild cases cause mucosal redness, swelling and pain, severe cases may cause ulcers, making oral discomfort aggravated. And long-term frequent gargling with hydrogen peroxide may cause imbalance of oral flora. The original beneficial bacteria in the oral cavity depend on maintaining the ecological balance of the oral cavity. Excessive action of hydrogen peroxide may cause damage to beneficial bacteria and increase the growth of pathogens.

To sum up, rinsing with hydrogen peroxide to clean your teeth requires caution. Be sure to know its concentration, usage and dosage before use, and do not abuse it for a long time. If you have oral problems and want to use hydrogen peroxide as an aid, you should consult a doctor and follow their instructions to ensure safety.
