Just a single tooth extraction.what's the care for after tooth surgery?dentist told me to keep the gauze in my mouth.i use teabag.it's good?no rinse&spit.shouldn't brush tonight?swallowed some saliva&blood after extraction.is that harmful to my body?

See below: The most important question is to have a treatment plan to replace the tooth that was already extracted. Are you planning for an implant? Speak to the dentist about all options.

Ask Dentist: Your Dentist should have both verbal and written instructions for you. Do not brush or rinse for at least 48 hrs. Once bleeding stops discontinue gauze/teabag. Swallowing saliva/blood not harmful. Soft high-protein diet for a few days. Make arrangement for tooth replacement to prevent bite collapse.
