Whiter teeth Hydrogen peroxide mouthwash

You can also use hydrogen peroxide as a mouth wash: take a spoonful to an 1/8th of a cup of peroxide and use this as you would mouth wash. You will see the bubbles as your teeth get cleaned killing germ and brightening your teeth.

ok.. Comments By: Ryan im gonna tryit   Shouldn't you Dilute? Comments By: Emery Hello, I too have used peroxide as mouthwash....it works great!! But on the bottle it says to dilute with an equal amount of water. I haven't tested it otherwise as this is still pretty strong. Another good thing is using this with baking soda for brushing. I make a paste from 1tbsp baking soda and a few drops 1/2 peroxide 1/2 water mixture. The salty taste from the sodium in the soda takes getting used to(especially when brushing the tongue) but it's a great toothpaste. **Not recommended for young children!!   Percentage Comments By: Incredible Baking Soda and Hydrogen Peroxide does work, it whitens your teeth and when used not to often , is harmless for your teeth, be sure to have a Peroxide percentage of no more then 10 %   no enamel Comments By: apesky wouldnt usign peroxde eat the enamel away?   it works Comments By: game i have suffered with halitosis for a long time i brushed, flossed and used hydrogen peroxide diluted with water and 6 hours after using the mouthwash my breath is still fresh. i have bought a mouthwash ready diluted with hydrogen but i don't want anything that smells to harsh so i will see how it goes. for now im happy with the hydrogen try it!   were. Comments By: Benjamin were is this peroxide available from? the local chemist? thanks   where??? Comments By: teethmaster try your local grocery store...   Use it diluted Comments By: Julie Read the back of the bottle to make sure you dilute it correctly as is sold in different strengths. If you get bottle of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide which is pretty common, it should be diluted with an equal amount of water making it no more than 1.5% but you can dilute it by more. I use a little in a glass mixed with water and baking soda (bicarbonate of soda)as recommended by my dentist as a mouthwash twice a day to help strengthen my gums. I have a genetic weakness that causes some of my gums to bleed, but I don't have gum disease. It seems to work fairly well, although it hasn't cured it completely. In the UK you can buy Hydrogen Peroxide from a chemist. Baking Soda from a grocery store.   Real Magic! Comments By: Maxien I have tried the Hydrogen Peroxide and Baking Soda mix and have had instant and fantastic results. when i read a few comments on the interent about it being instant and actually working i was sceptical, but i take it all back. My teeth are brighter, stains are less visable and thats just after the first application, 3 applications later and im begining to think some sort of miracle has happened. My gums and tongue look pinker and healthier. My mouth feels healthier and so much more cleaner than just regular toothbrusing and my treeth are so much whiter, not perfectly white (i dont want that fake tooth look) but much whiter than they were. My new best friend is hydrogen peroxide.   Do not just take a spoonful lol Comments By: CaptainConner I bought 6% which is way too strong. I would buy 3% proof and use it 50/50 with water to make it 1.5% and use like a normal mouth wash after brushing. First time I did it the hydorogen peroxide was fizzing all my teeth and gum were sensative after so i dont do it often and now use arm $ hammer enamal care toothpaste to protect my enamel. Hydrogen peroxide just restores the natural whiteness by removing staines and plaque.
