You should be OK: if you rinse the area gently after eating and try to get as much of the debris out as possible. If you have any doubt, return to your dentist asap.

Yes: Off-label use. OTC oral anesthetic space is NOT manufactured for use in an extraction site. Please immediately call your Oral Surgeon or treating General Dentist for guidance.
