Mouthwash is useful for cleaning places that your toothbrush cannot reach and for freshening your breath. But gargling with salt water—especially sea salt—can be just as beneficial for enhancing your dental hygiene and health.
Gargling with sea salt can also help with root canals. Sea salt helps to neutralize the pH balance in your mouth, which is required for healthy gums. It also helps to reduce gum bleeding. Also, there is no bad smell from the mouth.
The use of sea salt solution (seal salt in oral hygiene) acts as an antibacterial agent. Let us inform you that numerous small studies have been done with sea salt, which suggests that it may be used to prevent cavities and as mouthwash. However, further study is needed on the topic of oral health. If you believe you require a root canal, contact your dentist right away.
