On the effect of hydrogen peroxide on oral thrush
In recent times, doctors have studied the effect of hydrogen peroxide on oral thrush. Oral thrush is a common disease in the mouth, mostly caused by the growth of Candida albicans.

Hydrogen peroxide has strong oxidizing properties. In the mouth, it can meet with organic matter to release new oxygen, which can cause oxidation of bacterial protein, and then destroy its structure and function to achieve the purpose of sterilization. However, in the treatment of oral thrush, its effectiveness still needs to be analyzed in detail.

Some doctors say that rinsing with a moderate concentration of hydrogen peroxide can clear the mouth and reduce the amount of Candida albicans. Cover because it can change the microenvironment in the mouth and make Candida breeding uncomfortable. And its oxidation can kill some bacteria, relieve oral discomfort, such as pain, redness and swelling.

However, some doctors have doubts. If the concentration of hydrogen peroxide is improper, too high can hurt the oral mucosa, cause mucosal redness and swelling, ulcers, and increase the suffering of patients. And Candida albicans has a certain tolerance, and it is difficult to cure with hydrogen peroxide alone. The oral cavity is a complex ecosystem. When hydrogen peroxide is used for sterilization, it may also damage the beneficial bacteria, causing imbalance in the oral flora and increasing the possibility of repeated diseases.

In summary, hydrogen peroxide has a certain role in the treatment of oral thrush and can be used as an auxiliary method. However, when using it, the concentration must be carefully selected, and it should be used in combination with other methods for good effect, not alone. The doctor should determine the best treatment according to the specific situation of the patient and the advantages and disadvantages.
