I have a molar tooth which I had extracted. It has some blood on it, how do I clean it? SO that I can use it?
Steam, boiling water, alcohol, hydrogen pyroxide, iodine...
What do you want to use it for?
Are you saying that you want to keep the tooth as a souvenir? Who does that??? Creepy! Put it under your pillow and hope the Tooth Fairy leaves you a fiver.
The best cleaner we have found, specifically for biological stains, is Nature's Miracle. You have to be really careful with blood because it clots and the clots are very sturdy. It's built to work that way: clotted blood provides an infrastructure for damaged tissues to rebuild.
Thanks but will boiling water get rid of the germs and prevent future bacteria?
It will kill anything on it now. It cannot guarantee it's sterility in the future.
Would you know what methods I could use to prolong sterility?
