Stephan -I think so. A lot of people are doing this. Also iodine should work. I once had an infection in my gums, it was from a puncture of a teeth cleaning tool. That happened during a routine teeth cleaning, I inadvertently closed my mouth when the hygienist had the tool in my mouth and the tip must have been loaded with bacteria. My cheek was swollen. I bought three mouth rinses, thinking that one of them may have a sanitizing effect. Didn’t work. Then I thought of colloidal silver but the low ppm didn’t work, I think it only had 5 ppm. Then I tried 500 ppm and that finally did it! I don’t know why I didn’t try hydrogen peroxide!
What strength do you think of H202 for a rinse. I have 10% to dilute. I used to use 3% I think and that was easy to figure. I'm not confident about diluting the 10%.
(I just ordered Thorne's Vitamin K liquid. Have a lot of gum pain going toward the TMJ area.) Glad for this thread w lots of ideas.
