The US Environmental Protection Agency regulates disinfectants, and 0.5% hydrogen peroxide and other products are registered as a disinfectant for human coronaviruses (EPA List N). Inactivation of SARS-CoV-2 on surfaces can occur with a variety of biocidal agents, including hydrogen peroxide (Kampf et al.).

KEY POINTS
What we should know about Gum Diastase
- Gum disease is a mixed bacterial infection that produces inflammatory reaction by host to the periodontal tissues that surround and support the teeth.

Hydrogen peroxide penetrates the protective slime layer covering bacterial communities, and it can break down the cell walls of bacteria causing infections and oral wounds associated with gum diseases like gingivitis and periodontitis.
