盐水冲洗停止嘴中细菌的生长
盐水冲洗可能有助于停止口腔中细菌的生长。Dr. Marc Lazare, DDS说，他们在酸性环境上缩小了允许细菌繁殖的酸性环境。
“Saltwater rinses work by increasing the pH- balance inside the mouth, creating a much more alkaline oral environment in which the bacteria are no longer able to thrive,” Lazare says. “The harmful bacteria prefer the acidic environment, so once that is neutralized, the mouth can become less inflamed and healthier.”
Asmall 2017 study证明与常规斑块对照一起使用时，盐水冲洗可有效减少牙菌斑和口腔微生物计数。
帮助牙科手术后的康复过程
Lazare says that saltwater rinses assist in the healing process after dental procedures like tooth extractions.
“Saltwater promotes healing after dental procedures because it promotes gingival fibroblast migration, and an increased amount of extracellular matrix components, which serve to regulate wound repair activity,” he says. “Saltwater does not irritate the soft tissues in the mouth, and it will not burn or cause mouth pain.”
使用盐水冲洗也可以防止痛苦dry sockets (alveolar osteitis)that can occur after extractions, according to a

Saltwater rinses have multiple benefits but should be used differently depending on what they are used for.
After tooth extraction
“提取后24小时等待完整的漱口水，然后使用漱口水。”Dr. Henry Hackney, DMD。“Swish the rinses very gently to not damage the blood clot(s). You can do them several times a day, after eating, to ensure that your mouth stays clean. They remove the bacteria from the aching area, preventing the further spread of infection.”
Periodontal disease
“盐水冲洗对与与之相处的人有用periodontal disease,” saysNeil Gajjar博士，BSC，DDS，MAGD，FADI，FPFA，FICD，FACD，CERT。IV镇静。“To make your own rinse, simply put a teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water, and then rinse your mouth with the warm saltwater.”
牙疼
“For a toothache, the saltwater will aid in soothing the pain temporarily until you are able to see the dentist,” saysJoi M. Fremont博士，DDS。
牙龈感染
弗里蒙特说：“盐水冲洗可以通过在感染组织中抽出多余的液体来帮助牙龈感染。”“但是像牙痛一样，牙医的治疗对于去除引起感染的细菌，牙菌斑或牙垢是必要的。”
咽喉痛
哈克尼说：“用盐水漱口了15至30秒，然后吐出来，重复。”“它会舒缓喉咙痛并洗净细菌。”
溃疡
Gajjar说：“盐水冲洗可能会导致您的溃疡疮，但它们仍然很好地使用。”“只需将一茶匙盐放在一杯温水中，然后用温暖的盐水冲洗即可。”
过敏
哈克尼说：“盐水无法治愈过敏，但可以帮助减轻其一些症状。”“如果你的喉咙肿胀，吞噬盐水会带来缓解。”
“Overuse of salt rinses could irritate gums leading to further bleeding, saysDr. Jeffrey Sulitzer, DMD。话虽这么说，盐水解决方案通常是安全的，但仍然最好吐出来。
在感染的情况下，苏利策说吐出盐水is considered better at keeping the infection at bay. However, he warns against doing multiple mouth rinses per day, and swallowing too much saltwater, as this can also dehydrate you.
To make your own saltwater rinse, Sulitzer advises following these three steps.
- Use warm water, because warmth is more relieving to a sore throat than cold water. Warm water will also help the salt dissolve into the water more effectively.
- 使用您可用的任何类型的盐，并考虑其他成分过氧化氢or honey for additional healing and soothing properties. Most saltwater rinse recipes call for 8 ounces of warm water and 1 teaspoon of salt. However, if your mouth is tender and the saltwater rinse stings, decrease the salt to a 1/2 teaspoon for the first 1 to 2 days.
- 将水煮沸，然后从火上取出，加盐并搅拌。用盐水冷却到温暖的温度，然后再用它。洗净后，丢弃剩余的解决方案以避免污染。
To gargle with a saltwater solution safely, Sulitzer advises the following tips:
- You can gargle before or after brushing your teeth.
- 将尽可能多的溶液放入舒适的嘴里。
- 在喉咙后部吞噬盐水。
- Rinse around your mouth, teeth, and gums for 15 to 20 seconds.
- Spit out the solution.
Saltwater rinses can be helpful in improving dental health in several ways. These include reducing bacteria and plaque, and preventing infection following a dental procedure.
