Safety of Gargling 3 Hydrogen Peroxide

On the safety of gargling 3% hydrogen peroxide

Modern physicians have studied more about gargling 3% hydrogen peroxide, which is related to the prevention and treatment of oral diseases, and everyone has doubts about its safety.

I have heard from doctors that 3% hydrogen peroxide has strong oxidizing properties. In the mouth, when used moderately, it can remove odors and kill bacteria. Because of the structure of bacteria, when encountering this oxidant, its cell wall and membrane are invaded, and the structure of nucleic acids and proteins in it is also damaged, so it is difficult for bacteria to survive.

There are also disadvantages when used carelessly. If gargling for too long or the concentration is not properly controlled, it can damage the oral mucosa. The oral mucosa is originally a barrier against the outside world, delicate and delicate. If 3% hydrogen peroxide is overused, it can cause mucosa redness, pain, and even ulceration. And it can react with certain substances in the mouth to produce oxygen bubbles. When there are too many bubbles, it may cause discomfort, or even affect breathing.

Another animal was used as a test to observe the consequences of gargling 3% hydrogen peroxide. It is seen that there are signs of inflammation in the mouth of the tested animals. Although it may gradually heal over time, it also warns us to use it with caution.

Therefore, gargling 3% hydrogen peroxide, when used properly, can have the effect of preventing and treating oral diseases; if used improperly, it will endanger oral health. The doctor should inform the patient in detail of the usage, dosage and precautions, and the patient must also follow the doctor's advice, so as to ensure the safety of the gargle and the effectiveness of the treatment.
