I have periodontal disease causing deep gum pockets and one tooth extraction from bone loss. I now have a bone graft waiting for the implant next. I now brush twice daily and rinse with 3% peroxide. In the evening I keep the bubbly peroxide in my mouth while I floss. With the floss I can push the peroxide between the gums! In two years my pockets have gone from 5/6/7/8 in the molars. Last week the numbers were 2/3/4/5. Big improvement. Plus, the dentist mentioned how white my teeth are and asked white I was using!!!

Whenever I have problems with my gums I buy ___ at any pharmacy. This is a mouthwash made of Peroxide but on a gel base. The gel allows the peroxide to stay longer in your mouth to keep killing bacteria. Good luck!
