Hello sir. 1. Don't brush from that side. 2. Gargle twice or thrice a day with warm water and salt. 3. Avoid hard food, spicy , hot food for at least 3-4days. 4. Maintain oral hygiene. Food should not get stuck in that extraction area.

All we can do is, to maintain good oral hygiene around the extraction site. This will lead to healthy recovery, fast recovery may be expected. Warm salt water gargles can help after 24 hours of extraction.

Hi sir ,    Firstly don't gargle or spit for 24 hrs,have soft ,non spicy diet for atleast 3 days .Brush normally from tomorrow as food lodgement will delay healing and u also can do warm salt rinse gently from tmrw .
Next Steps
Follow the instructions correctly
Health Tips
Avoid forcible rinsing or gargling as it dislodges the blood clot from extraction site.
