Hi lybrate-user. Post tooth extraction, you are not supposed to spit or rinse for 1 day. You are supposed to swallow whatever blood or saliva develops in your mouth. After 1 day, you are supposed to rinse with warm salt water everyday for next 4-5 days atleast everytime after you have a meal or thrice a day. This rinse too is not supposed to be vigorous but just mild.

We should not disturb clot formed after tooth removal. So no gargles on first day of tooth removal. Start light gargles next day and then routinely.

Hello, Post Extraction it is advised to rinse the mouth after every meal to avoid any food particle to lodge in to the wound space. Rinsing with mouthwash is also often advised to avoid any infection and better healing. There is no specific number of times advised for rinsing the mouth unless a medicated mouthwash is prescribed.
