can this be used in a homemade mouthwash, gargle only (obviously)? it'd be diluted.

I did a quick search and it turns out that you can use it to make homemade mouth wash. The link used a mixture of vegetable glycerin, tea tree oil, and witch hazel.

I dont see why not. You mentioned just a gargle so that should be perfectly fine. Its very good tea tree oil. I have enjoyed using it.

I know it is good for mouth sores straight. I would google about the dilution. Or maybe ask the product source. Let us know.

This product should not be diluted. Also, the product that I used was an oil based product, not a water based product.

I couldnt find a specific answer however, there is no alcohol or sugar in it. I would say it is safe for children any age who know how to gargle. Source: http://www.actoralcare.com/act-for-adults/act-faq/

This is straight chlorine bleach for cleaning. It is not the type used for oral purposes. I wouldn't even think about using it in your mouth even for 30 seconds.

It's a concentrate, so it should be heavily diluted in water. You should also check with your physician just to make sure.

you would need to use a very mild dilution if you were not going to rinse...it is a good sudsing soap!

I wouldn't use it for mouthwash. I guess you could use it to despense some mouthwash in a glass or cup. It doesn't despense a large amount so it may take several pumps to get enough.

Yes, please go to the Pulmonica website to for more detailed instructions, but the short answer is to gently swish it around in a bowl of water or diluted (non-sugared) mouthwash and then again in a bowl of clean water. Do not 'slap' it dry, but set it up on the black edge saying Pulmonica (down) so that the mouth piece edge is up. Let it dry.

I don't know as I used it for my dog's feet to keep off any chemicals from when they fertilize the grass. I used it diluted. I don't think you can use it for a dental rinse. They also use it for horses.

Personally, I use peroxide, as a mouthwash. Before that, I was using straight Listerine in it. Works fine.

The only liquid I have ever used in this (have had several over the years) is undiluted mouthwash (Listerine-type) and it works great!

Yes, if you dilute it down to the correct percentage (0.12% is common for dental use, although one product uses 0.5%). It may stain your teeth, though, as some chlorhexidine mouthwashes do; to reduce chances of staining, brush teeth thoroughly before using the mouthwash. The chlorhexidine gluconate is not bitter and does not sting my (unusually sensitive) eyes [was using it on itchy scalp and got it in my eyes]. May have some perfume in it, my gallons (from Vedco) do, but not that big a deal. Good Luck!

I don't see why it could not be diluted. Household vinegar is 5% acetic acid. That would be 3 parts water to 1 part 20% vinegar. Please be very careful and wear gloves as well as wipe down all surfaces that the 20% vinegar came in contact with. This will burn the skin quickly.

I would think that any household disinfectant should do the trick....even mouthwash. I wash mine and I am the only one who uses it. I love this item!

Yes, it can. I'd make sure it's plenty diluted- but this stuff really, really works!

great question - I had to search myself for application instructions. What you're using it for will dictate its application. I was using it as a mouth rinse for an infected tooth/gum, so I diluted 1 drop per 2 ounces of water, mixing it VERY well, and swished around for a few minutes. Below is a link I found for Thieves, this products competitor, but can be used for this product as well. Good luck!http://www.natural-aromatherapy-benefits.com/thievesoilrecipe.html

I use it full strength in a spray bottle. Don't know how it would work in a diluted form. It is excellent cleaner especially for greasy jobs.
