British Dental Journal

Abstract

The use of hydrogen peroxide (HP) is limited in dental surgery by UK interpretation of EC legislation. The product, however, has wide application in surgery, particularly in the debridement of wounds. Its use in sensitive areas such as the carotid artery and vein illustrate its value in safely cleaning wounds.
