Sure! Your tongue might turn blonde, though!
yes don’t swallow it taste like crap and will foam up a bit use a vodka chaser
I was instructed to rinse with 1 pt hydrogen peroxide and 1 pt baking soda back when I had my wisdom teeth removed.
I did, and I never had any problems. It wasn’t nasty either, just weird texture-wise.
Been using it for years:
Another idea for getting peroxide in to your gums: Put hydrogen peroxide into a Water Pik and then spray the peroxide at your gums, as you usually would do with a Water Pik. I think the people I’ve heard of doing this have used a mixture of half water and half 3% peroxide. (The mixture is 1.5% peroxide.) Three percent hydrogen peroxide might be abit too strong to spray into your gums?
yes, absolutely.
No, you're better off buying Crest pro-health. I was at risk for gum disease until I started using it. After 2 weeks my gum sores have healed.
I have rinsed with hydrogen perxoide every morning for years.
Yep. Just keep it in the 3% to 6% solution range. The solution commonly sold in drugstores. It’s not a cure all and does help kill germs but it may take a bit of use. Its not an immediate thing. Very similar to warm salt water
Hydrogen peroxide is one of the unsung chemical heroes IMHO, not only can you use it for rinsing your mouth, you can (with an eye dropper) use it to clean out ear wax (method: lay on one side, have someone drip hydrogen peroxide into your ear, you’ll experience a warm crackling sort of sensation like bubbles (which is what it’s doing) and after about 1 to 2 minutes, hold a kleenex to your ear, get up and let it drain out. Repeat for the other side).
If you’re suffering from any kind of head or chest cold, add 250 ml of hydrogen peroxide to a cold water humidifier and let it run in your bedroom while you’re sleeping. The moist air w/hydro-peroxide will help loosen up that junk in your lungs and air way. It will also promote drainage from out of the sinus as well.
AND (for the coup d’grace), although yours truly has never had need to use hydrogen peroxide for the following purpose, I was once told by a urologist (this applies to men only of course) that hydrogen peroxide is excellent for keeping that nasty substance commonly referred to as ‘smegma’ under control.
Let the jokes begin, lol
It works great, as long as you don’t need flouride or enamal restoration.
It kills all bacteria. Sores have a tendency not to heal very swiftly.
Don’t swallow either.
It’s great — I’ve used it for 20 years. It’s not a substitute for brushing and flossing but it will kill germs, keep your teeth white, and prevent mouth ulcers.
Salt and baking soda make a useful dentifrice. Then use 1.5% hydrogen peroxide in a water pic.
Works well.
However, do not ingest or imbibe.
I heard once that if the H2O2 gets under a bad crown/loose filling, HOO HOOO! Pain time.
Since I've been using Biotene tooth paste, I haven’t felt that I have use it that often.
I'd stake my license on it. B-D
Foaming at the mouth,MAD DOG,MAD DOG!
Several things.
First, I know some dentists who won’t recommend using hydrogen peroxide. They wouldn’t cite a reason other than general distrust, but that works for me.
As far as the generally best thing for the mouth, throat, eustation tubes, cold sores, mouth irritation, gums, sinuses, etc., is gargling with a tall glass of warm salt water. It helps in all sorts of different ways.
However, not too long ago, a young man managed to kill himself by gargling for a month with Epsom (magnesium) salts. He figured out the one way to uptake so much magnesium that it poisoned him. Normally, it is either used as a laxative, or a small amount is absorbed through the skin. But he killed himself by gargling.
A behind-the-counter toothpaste sold in pharmacies is called “Gel-Kam”, and it has the maximum level of fluoride they can put in a toothpaste.
And several anti-plaque chewing gums are no being sold as well.
Very safe. I use it all the time. No issues.
