Your post is confusing. Most soaps available for general use are non toxic. Absorption of small amounts from such an exposure is unlikely to cause a problem. In the future if you post on this site please provide the specific material (brand name) so the composition can be assessed and a more specific response possible.

Talk to your pediatrician and dentist about safe ways to clean your mouth. While experimenting is important at your age, there are invisible boundaries that have to be trusted and respected in order not to harm yourself.
