Is It Safe to Spray Hydrogen Peroxide in Mouth

On the pros and cons of oral spraying of hydrogen peroxide
In recent times, there have been many discussions about spraying hydrogen peroxide in the mouth. In other words, hydrogen peroxide has the ability to clean and sterilize, which is beneficial to oral hygiene. The new oxygen generated by its decomposition can eliminate all kinds of bacteria in the mouth, such as dental caries and periodontitis pathogens, and can remove bad breath and make the breath fresh.

However, there are also those who worry about its safety. Oral mucosa is delicate, and if the concentration of hydrogen peroxide is improper, it is easy to cause mucosal damage. High concentrations can burn the mucosa, make it red, swollen, eroded, and even cause ulcers, causing pain. And if used for a long time and frequently, it may destroy the balance of flora in the mouth. There are many beneficial bacteria in the mouth, which check and balance each other to ensure oral health. Excessive use of hydrogen peroxide, or accidental killing of beneficial bacteria, leads to the growth and reproduction of harmful bacteria, which increases the risk of oral diseases.

In addition, swallowing a small amount of hydrogen peroxide sprayed orally may cause gastrointestinal discomfort. Its decomposition in the stomach produces gas, which can cause stomach swelling, stomach pain, and even vomiting.

In summary, if you want to spray hydrogen peroxide in the mouth, you must be careful. The concentration needs to be precisely controlled, and it should not be done frequently. It is advisable to consult a professional doctor before use, and decide according to your own oral condition, in order to ensure both safety and effect, and protect oral health.
