Please don't gargle for 24hrs atleast. I hope u know the post extraction instructions. First 24 hrs 1. Don't spit. 2.don't take anything hot 3. No hot pack on face 4. Do not rinse mouth. 5. Take medication as prescribed 6. If taking juice don't take a straw. 7. No alcohol and no smoking for three days. 8. Don't exert yourself. After 24 hrs - start warm salt water rinses thrice daily for three to four days. And continue the medication as prescribed.
