What is the ratio for baking soda and Hydrogen peroxide to treat gum disease?

When using baking soda and hydrogen peroxide, use just enough hydrogen peroxide to make the baking soda "pasty" enough to pick up on your toothbrush. For a single application, try using one teaspoon of baking soda, then add peroxide little by little. If it gets too wet, add some more baking soda. The exact ratio is not too scientific.
Also - try using equal parts of table salt and baking soda in the mix, then add the appropriate amount of hydrogen peroxide. To make it easy, some people make the mix right in the palm of their hand, but it could irritate your skin so you'll have to see for yourself.
Either way, get it on your brush, and apply it into your gums using little wiggly back-and-forth movements of the brush at the gum line. You can also "tap" the mixture into the gums where they form a collar around the teeth, especially in areas where you know you may have deeper pockets in the gums.
See your dentist for a complete periodontal examination and his/her recommendations if you have or even if you think you have gum disease.

What compounds have a hydrogen to oxygen ratio that is greater than 2 to 1?
Hydrogen peroxide (H202)
What makes these two compounds different hydrogen peroxide and hydrogen and oxygen water?
Different ratio of hydrogen and oxygen
Why is the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen not always 21?
The ratio 2:1 is only for Water, H2O, but there are compounds such as H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide) which has ratio 1:1.
What rato is present between masses of hydrogen and oxygen in Hydrogen per oxide?
Hydrogen Peroxide is H2O2 - so it is a 1:1 ratio.
Hydrogen and Oxygen present in a 1 to 2 to 1 ratio is what?
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) Water would be 2:1 (H2O)
Background information of hydrogen peroxide?
Hydrogen peroxide has a molecular formula of H2O2. So each molecule of hydrogen peroxide has a 1:1 ratio of hydrogen to oxygen. Its structural formula is H-O-O-H. The overall equation for the process during which hydrogen peroxide is made is H2+O2 ---> H2O2.
How many liters are in a pound of hydrogen peroxide with specific gravity of 1.1295?
The volume is the ratio mass/density.V = 0,45359237 / 1,1295 = 0,4 litre
Ratio bleach to water for purification?
If you want to sanitize a surface, the bleach solution must be 10:1. 10 parts water to one part bleach. Any higher concentrations may actually decrease the sanitizing effects.A much safer alternative is simple hydrogen peroxide! "Hydrogen peroxide is the only germicidal agent composed only of water and oxygen. Like ozone, it kills disease organisms by oxidation! Hydrogen peroxide is considered the world's safest all natural effective surface sanitizer. It kills microorganisms by oxidizing them, which can be best described as a controlled burning process. When hydrogen peroxide reacts with organic material it breaks down into oxygen and water."See related links to learn about the many uses of peroxide for your home:
What is the ratio of hydrogen?
The ratio of hydrogen to WHAT!
What other compounds are in baking soda?
The formula unit for baking soda is NaHCO3. Its chemical name is sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydrogen carbonate. It is a salt composed of sodium ions (Na+) and bicarbonate (hydrogen carbonate) ions (HCO3- ) in a ratio of 1:1.
What are some at home teeth whitening remedies?
Homemade tooth whitening solution can be made from a teaspoon of baking soda and a few drops of hydrogen peroxide. This mixture should be brushed onto teeth like toothpaste. Another option is to mix baking soda and salt in a ratio of 3 to 1 and use it as you would toothpaste. Rinsing with a mix of 1 tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide and 1 tablespoon of water can also whiten teeth.
Explain Why is H2O2 is not the empirical formula of hydrogen peroxide?
An empirical formula is the lowest ratio of elements in a compound. So since H2O2 can be reduced to HO (H1O1), that is the empirical formula. The molecular formula is H2O2.
