I'm a scientist too. However, what I've noticed is that even though you tried using "anti-bacterial" solutions, there are still good and bad bacteria that can and will remain in the mouth. This will cause growth of both good bacteria and bad bacteria on the plates. Since these solutions kill all bacteria (good and bad) indiscriminately, we can't really tell which bacteria is more prominent judging by the growth.
What I'm missing is the distinction between good and bad bacteria. The bad bacteria (anaerobe) that make your gum sick are mainly targetted with hydroperoxide (oxiden kills these germs). So I think I can be a good sign that the hydroperoxide dish shows growth of bacteria, you need good bacteria for mouth health. Killing all bacteria is a very bad thing to do, when the good are gone they can't protect your mouth.
Thank you for the petidish test. I am gonna give listerine another go. I stopped about 10 years ago because it was not helping my gum pain. The peroxide did. Weird. Maybe related to the type of bacteria that grew after wash.
Just discovered your channel! New subscriber! Love this science experiment as I was always wondering which one killed more bacteria. Would love if you compared mouthwash with peroxide with disinfecting toothbrush head… I know you mentioned how peroxides effectiveness in our mouth could be altered but curious how it would compare with disinfecting outside the mouth, just in a glass with a tooth brush head for disinfecting to see which one kills more bacteria
As a scientist why not water down 10 percent to 5 percent and see how that goes instead of saying 3 percent not strong enough and 10 percent too strong
You don't say if the mouthwash has alcohol as an ingredient. My dentist always tells me not to use mouthwash with alcohol. I use another kind without alcohol.
I am a big fan of HP, I read a lot about it, I keep using it daily in different applications. But there's a huge drawback in 3% HP we buy in any grocery store or pharmacy - the stabilizer. It blocks most valuable polistening? The alcohol content in Listerine serves to preserve the product by inhibiting the growth of microorganisms.
IDK, about all what you found out here. But, I use HP along w/baking soda as a mouth rinse when I have tooth infections and they work like mouthwashes do not. now, why is that. infection is gone in a couple days of use.
Would have liked to have known, what bacteria exactly was growing in each dish. Qestion being; was more of the good essential bacteria killed by the mouthwash? Thanks
They're both antiseptic. Antiseptics don't choose which bacteria to kill. They all die. It's indiscriminate. How they kill the bacteria may change, but all the bacteria are still dying. So, I am going to assume you're hoping that peroxide somehow magically preserves the good bacteria, as opposed to mouthwash, and play that down.
Thank you for doing the experiment on H2O2 vs. antiseptic mouthwash. Now I know I made the right decision. I've been using antiseptic mouthwash for 40+ years.
Keep in mind there are good and bad bacteria in your mouth. The good bacteria is not harmful to your teeth, gums, or breath and can actually crowd out the bad bacteria, so it might not be a good idea to indiscriminately kill everything. My denstist recommends hydrogen peroxide and also mentioned that probiotics like yoghurt are really good for your oral hygiene.
yes & also from medical drug store u can't buy more than 6% hp as it's the maximum limit of purchasing in most countries, other higher concentration can only be purchased via a licence for commercial purposes only
I’m curious about the effect the hydrogen peroxide might have on tooth enamel over an extended period of time. I figure it’s not something you can quite test, and your suspicion of it being generally neutralized in your mouth would probably reduce the chances of it having any effect to zero. Still, mouthwash is most likely developed with this in consideration, and hydrogen peroxide could be potentially harmful in other ways.
The acid produced by bacteria is what erodes your enamel. Hydrogen peroxide is a base - it neutralizes the acid that destroys your enamel! Soooo, not dangerous to your enamel.
Many older folks used this before mouthwashes came along. Many of them never have cavity problems. There’s a lot of money in selling products that don’t work. This fake scientist is part of the problem with our society, to much misinformation and a whole lot of greed.
I tried using hydrogen peroxide as mouthwash. Diluted it with water 50-50. After a few months, I noticed my teeth are sensitive. I switched to fluoride mouthwash and the sensitivity is gone after a few weeks.
The gum around my wisdom teeth, which hasn't fully come through yet, becomes inflamed from time to time. My dentist recommended me to use H2O2 whever this happens. When I use it, the inflammation is gone within 2 days. He has never even mentioned mouthwash to me and I don't use mouthwash myself.
This video is highly deceptive The reason it is highly deceptive is that he is usesing a hydrogen peroxide which has stabilizers in it which causes the plastic taste. He should have bought the non stabilized form. The other reason it is highley deceptive he is usesing a time standard made for mouth wash and not hydrogen peroxide. I tested this and got wildly different results.
I gargled 70% Hydrogen Peroxide for less than 20 seconds and mildly burned the tip of my tongue, results were good with less bacteria (at that time I didn’t clean my teeth in anyway for about a month or 2) there was less plaque and less bacteria, but with a painful burning feeling on my tongue and cheeks.
I was glad my bad breath problem has come to an end after 7 years of suffering with this problem and seeking help from one place to another, i was able to get rid of it with the supplement i got from Dr.Obaedo on RUclips am so happy sharing this here..,
10% h202 is not too strong for mouth washing! The aftertaste you experienced is probably due to your amalgam fillings, if you have them, Simply rinse with water straight after. Used 9% h202 for years, never had any problems and no dental work.

Hydrogen Peroxide is far better than mouthwash imo.
The experiment proves otherwise. Cope with the facts.

dude unlike a solvent its a whole chemical you're just cranking the danger level when you go above 3%
what the fuck was my motive when I said this
He stated in the video that too much is harmful. Did you not watch it?
@@bigdaddynero over 10 is harmful. Did you/
@@SteamInJapan That wasn't said in the video. Learn to listen.
Interesting I use both H2O2 in morning to help with whitening and mouthwash at night but I don't gargle I swish
How much hp do you use?
Could you do the same experiment with coconut oil + peppermint oil vs xylitol pulling?
People are always so surprised about using peroxide, but it literally says on the bottle oral rinse
You don't say if the mouthwash has alcohol as an ingredient. My dentist always tells me not to use mouthwash with alcohol. I use another kind without alcohol.
I wonder about vodka. If it's different vs mouthwash, hydrogen peroxide, and whiskey 🤔
Interesting
Can you do a Petrie dish with colloidal silver
Thanks for the great video
Good job 👍🏽

Can you do a salt water vs mouth was experiment?
Been thinking about it. I will eventually
Is 10 volume hydrogen peroxide safe to use as mouthwash?
Thank you in advance
no, it will damage your gums and tongue
So Many Science !! 😮
I use peroxide to whiten my teeth
*That wall got padded down like it's about to enter a meeting with a drug lord*
I tried it. Really not a good thing to use Peroxide. It suck vs mouth wash. But all mouth wash also suck because of alcohol sugar they put in it.

Been usesing it for 20 years twice a day and I have perfect enemal and no cavity’s over my lifetime.

H202 is used to disinfect open wounds. Mouthwash isn't.
H2O2 is an emetic for dogs. So why wouldn’t it be for humans? The pH of stomach acid dog= 1.8 which is much more acidic than humans. Is this why?
Mouthwash causes high blood pressure though
Ok, how does that work?
Wait you’re supposed to mix this with water I just take a big swig out the hydro bottle and swish it around and spit it out lmaooo
Same goes for me lmao 😅

The other reason it is highley deceptive he is usesing a time standard made for mouth wash and not hydrogen peroxide. I tested this and got wildly different results.
What would the time standard be H2O2?
The time standard for for a 3 percent solution is 3minutes for bacteria and 6 minutes for fungi.
That is 6 times longer than he tested for.
I have also compared my results to those of published research studies on h202 and found similar times

I want to thank drohanon for curing me from bad breath which I suffer for years, but now healed by his natural remedies🌿
I gargled 70% Hydrogen Peroxide for less than 20 seconds and mildly burned the tip of my tongue, results were good with less bacteria (at that time I didn’t clean my teeth in anyway for about a month or 2) there was less plaque and less bacteria, but with a painful burning feeling on my tongue and cheeks.
you're really brave to put 70% H2O2 in your mouth.
NEVER do this! Nothing above 3%.
I thank both of you guys for the help
what a mad lad
Which Is best Is best for bad breath for hydrogen proxide ?
Wait wait wait, where the fuck do you live where that much mouthwash is $7?
It’s 15 bucks in California
@noahhuraan5353 Where do you live where it’s not? You’re not getting screwed like the rest if us.
I was glad my bad breath problem has come to an end after 7 years of suffering with this problem and seeking help from one place to another, i was able to get rid of it with the supplement i got from Dr.Obaedo on RUclips am so happy sharing this here..,
What did you apply to it??
Food grade HP is crap.
I use baking soda and a 3 percent spray and have done so for a long time. i dont like the taste of toothpaste

Thanks for the tip but I am playing it safe 6%.❤ Have tried mouth wash Listerine, was not impressed.
