It is recommended that after a tooth extraction you rinse your mouth with warm water with a teaspoon of salt dissolved in it twice a day for the next couple of days to help sterilise the wound, so long as it has stopped bleeding. If you have just had an extraction, fold a tissue so it is quite thick and compact, then place it over the wound and bite on it for the next half an hour. If heavy bleeding still persists after one hour, seek medical help.
