Saltwater Rinse
Salt is a natural disinfectant that helps to reduce inflammation and swelling. You can use salt water to fight gum disease because it can help to remove bacteria. Use warm water since it relieves a sore throat better than cold. In addition, the salt will dissolve more readily if the water is warm.
Use any salt available, and for further healing and calming effects, think about adding extra items like honey or hydrogen peroxide. Reduce the salt to 1/2 teaspoon for the first 1 to 2 days if the mouth is sensitive. Mix the salt and warm water in a small glass or container. Do not swallow the saltwater; gently rinse the mouth for 15 to 30 seconds. After that, spit the water out and repeat it several times until the swelling disappears. Do not rinse the mouth more frequently than a couple of times each day. Use salt water to remove plaque and germs from the teeth and gums. Its healing abilities can teat inflamed or swollen gums.
