Can you put peroxide in your mouth when you have a tongue piercing?
Short answer is YES. It's a forehead smacking question though. Why do you want to put peroxide in your mouth? Here is what my dentist said. The peroxide used for whitening is A. not the quite the same as the stuff sold in the first aid department for the store, and B. not swished about in the mouth. Peroxide causes gross looking bumps to grow on the tongue and softens enamel on your teeth which makes them more susceptible to cavities. So, over all, peroxide is not a good idea in your mouth. Yes, you can use it even though you have a tongue piercing. Our suggestion, if you are just hoping for disinfection, is Cepacol or Listerine, swished intently for two to three minutes. Yeppers, a full two minutes. Trust me, your eyes will be tearing up by then, but your piercing should be pretty clean and sanitary. Leave the peroxide OUT of your mouth for reasons that have NOTHING to do with your piercing. Yes, I have an oral piercing I have had for over twelve years. I have had numerous conversations with more than one dentist about that piercing and it's effect on my oral hygiene. (ie--broken teeth)
