A non-toxic, cosmetically acceptable lavage for the treatment of periodontal disease comprising an antimicrobial agent selected from PVP-I, (nonyl-phenoxypoly (ethyleneoxy) ethanol iodine complex) per MPEP 608.01(V) “Trademarks and names”or cetylpryridinium chloride effective against the microorganisms normally present in the oral cavity admixed with a source of nascent or active oxygen comprising H2O2, carbamide peroxide, benzoyl peroxide or sodium peroxycarbonate, the antimicrobial agent and the oxygen source being in predetermined relative amounts and proportions and maintained out of contact with one another until they are to be combined to form the oral lavage or pre-mixed as a stabilized combination, the antimicrobial agent and the oxygen source interacting when the lavage is ready to be used such that the oxygen source leases oxygen to enhance the antimicrobial activity of the antimicrobial agent.
