When I was little, I had to go to the dentist for something, don't remember what though. Whatever it was, I do remember he had me use peroxide as a mouthwash for a couple weeks. I had kind of forgot about that.

It’s definitely good for your gums and whitening your teeth somewhat, as far as pulp health I have no idea.

That stuff is a real man's mouthwash. I worked with a old black guy when I was young that used to drink that shite on the job.

From the website:

"At one time, hydrogen peroxide was used to disinfect skin wounds. This is no longer recommended, since research has shown that hydrogen peroxide can irritate or damage the cells needed for wound healing."

Is this true? I still use hydrogen peroxide for minor cuts and abrasions. Should I just use rubbing alcohol?

Both can damage new bld cells. Just use neosperm & cover w/ a bandaid.

Appreciate that. I've been doing it wrong all these years. Never had a problem using peroxide or rubbing alcohol but better safe than sorry.

This is true. I got my dog to throw up rat poison. Took him to vet and they charged me $1000 to watch him for two days.

Yeah you should irrigate with water first and remove all visible debris before doing this.

Diesel also does the trick and is significantly cheaper.

Depending on water supply and the folks that oversee it, the water occasionally has enough chlorine that you may already be gargling bleach.

Two parts mouthwash of your choice and one part HP .... been using this for years. Also helps fight off sore throat, etc.

I was getting a hair cut one day and heard a woman talking about brushing her teeth with Comet.

You should do that also.

I use it a few times a week now and it's been great. Baking soda mixed with water can work well too I've heard.
