When should I rinse my mouth after a wisdom tooth extraction?
My doctor's directions were to wait 24 hours before brushing my teeth. I bought a baby toothbrush for the teeth directly next to the extraction site; this give better control so that the extraction site is not hit during the brushing process. Also, they say to "drool" out and NOT spit for 1 week following the extraction, as this may rupture the blood clot. The same is true for ALL mouthwashes - do NOT use. The 1 tsp salt in 1cup of luke warm water mixture is to be gently moved around the extraction site, by the tilting of the head - do NOT swish, as this may rupture the blood clot. It's best to wait about a week after the extraction to brush your teeth. 24 hours after the extraction you can rinse with warm water and salt. Do not swish but very gently move your head to move the water in your mouth. Its best to "drool" it out. Do not spit or swish as this can remove the blood clots and cause dry socket which is very very painful.

When should you eat regular foods after a wisdom tooth extraction?
For the first day eat only soft foods that are not too warm and not too cold. After a few days you can start eating normally. Do not rinse with water and salt for the first 24 hours. After that rinse 3 times a day, for about a week. It is prudent to follow the advice of the dentist or oral surgeon who removed the teeth. Each individual case is unique. The doctor or his/her staff should be available for at least a few days following the surgery to answer your questions and provide follow-up care. Do not smoke for at least 72 hours.
Why causes the socket after tooth extraction to turn black?
Naturally, it depends upon "which" extraction --- however, in the normal course of things, it should appear somewhat "depressed", and should be the same color of the rest of your gums. If bleeding continues, try biting down on a warm tea bag instead of "gauze". Why? Because tea contains "tanic acid", which helps heal and shrink the gum.
