Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
If i am your treating doctor, i would strictly advise not to use hydrogen peroxide solution as a rinse. The hydrogen peroxide burns the tissues so do not use, it has to be used cautiously by the dentists not by the patients. I advise you to do saline rinse, take little warm water put salt in that and gargle your mouth. Complete the course of antibiotics prescribed by your dentist.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
