Can I Safely Dilute Chlorhexidine Mouthwash for Daily Use?

Patient's Query

Is it safe and appropriate for me to use Chlorhexidine mouthwash regularly, diluted with water, as part of my morning oral hygiene routine, and if so, what would be the recommended concentration and frequency of use for my specific oral health needs?

Answered by Dr. Ketan Revanwar

Absolutely, the use of diluted Chlorhexidine mouthwash with water in the morning routine of oral care can be safe and helpful. The usual concentration is 0.12% and it can be used once or twice per day. This mouthwash is good for inflammation of gums, plaque as well as bacteria in the mouth. To get the best outcome, do not swallow and follow directions cautiously.

I have toothache due to cavity and I feel like that gum is also swelling so can you suggest medicine for this problem.

Male | 29

The tooth starts to ache which suggests that you may have a cavity. If you do not take care of it properly, it may go on to the neighboring teeth, thus causing the recurrence of the problem. This happens because the bacteria are attacking the affected tooth and the gum. The main thing you need to do is to avoid sweets to cut off the bacteria that are contributing to the problem. In particular, ibuprofen, an over-the-counter medicine, and sometimes a prescription, are all good options.

If your mouth sore has been persistent for more than 2 weeks without shows of improvement, it is good to consult a dentist.

A broken frenulum occurs when the gentle piece of fabric fastening your tongue or in another part of your body gets pulled or torn apart. You may experience pain or irritation, primarily when moving or moving your tongue or doing activities that affect that area. Occasionally, it may bleed slightly. Don't irritate it further to help it heal and clear it with salty water.

How long does a root canal last without a crown?

Male | 37

a root canal done tooth is brittle and can break easily when hard food is chewed .

so root canal will last as long as it doesnot break with pressure of hard food 

by capping the tooth it will not break inspite of having hard food ( depends on quality of cap)

I'm 22 yrs old female and I've had this brown spot under my tongue, and now i see similar spots over the side of my tongue. I'm confused as to what they're. And recently I've been to dentists too, for tooth extraction and filling. But none of them suggested anything. Like if those spots were danger to me or not. I've been an active smoker and recently am trying to quit it. I'd really like to know if those brown spots are dangerous for me.

why did a blister appear and a fat lip when i bit my lip?

Female | 21

As a result of the tissue injury when you bite your lip, blisters can develop. Besides, the region might even swell up to develop a fat lip. If after several days, the blister or swelling does not subside, and you have sustained consistent pain then it is advisable to see a dental specialist for diagnosis and treatment.

My son accidentally swallows a bipilac tablet

Male | 13

If your little boy has swallowed a Bipilac tablet by mistake, don't panic. The most frequent symptoms of ingestion are upset stomach and perhaps some vomiting or diarrhea. The reason for this is that the stomach doesn’t like the pill. To make him feel better, make sure he drinks plenty of water and keep an eye on him constantly. It’s important to observe any strange behavior in your child and if there is any, call your local poison control centre at once.
