Can you rinse your mouth after pulling out your teeth?


Dedicated to your well-being.
Gargle can be done the day after tooth extraction, but not on the day after tooth extraction. Because it takes time for clot formation on the day after tooth extraction, clot formation will gradually occur 2 to 4 hours after tooth extraction. If gargle is done, it is likely that local force will cause clot to fall off, forming a void in the local tooth extraction socket, leading to dry socket and infection. Therefore, on the second day after tooth extraction, you can slightly rinse your mouth, or use mouthwash to carry out local immersion to achieve the purpose of anti-inflammatory. Generally do not rinse your mouth on the day after tooth extraction, but there are also some cases that are OK. For example, after tooth extraction, precision suture, no wound around to maintain oral hygiene, on the day you can use mouthwash to carry out local moisturizing cleaning is OK.
