I can't help but wonder since vinegar is used as a cleaning agent for other things...so is it good for the mouth?

Probably not since it absorbs calcium.

Vinegar is an acid. Any kind of acid is not good for your teeth. However, with that said, one of the best remedies for a sore throat is gargling with vinegar, salt, and water. I don't know the exact measurement but about 1/4 c. vinegar, 3/4 c. warm water, and 1 tsp. salt.

hi,
the acetic acid content of vinegar is much too high for use undiluted in the mouth.
If it removes stains from household objects this doen't mean you can use it in your mouth.

No, I suggest warm salt water or a nonalcohol mouth wash.
