You just use the solution for gargling, do not attempt to dislodge the clot which will be dissolved by itself.

The General Dentist or specialist Oral Surgeon is responsible for our post-surgical care, The syringe and mouth wash should have come with written instructions. If so, follow them to the letter. If not, make a list of your questions so you don't forget anything, then call the office to review ALL of your questions.
