How Hydroxyl Mouth Wash works
Hydroxyl Mouth Wash is an antiseptic that helps treat gum diseases and remove stains from teeth. It works by releasing oxygen upon contact with gums, creating an effervescence that helps eliminate bacteria and debris. This oxygen release also breaks down the chemical bonds of yellow-brown stains on the teeth, leading to a whitening effect. Additionally, its mild antibacterial properties support oral hygiene by reducing plaque buildup and preventing infections.
