This product is used as a mouthwash and as a gargle and as such has a mechanical cleansing action and freshens the mouth. Thymol has a disinfectant action which is diminished through combination with protein though it is less toxic and has a more powerful disinfectant action than phenol. Its lower solubility in water than phenol and its loss of potency in the presence of protein reduce its overall effectiveness as a disinfectant.
