However you rinse your "moth" should be fine. Just don't dry it around an open flame. |

Do NOT rinse with anything for the first 24 hours. You can knock the blood clot out and restart the bleeding, and/or predispose yourself to a dry socket, which you do NOT want to get. After that, salt water of the right concentration is soothing. It should be mixed to be about the same concentration as that found in tissue fluid--about 1/2 teaspoon in 8 oz. of warm (not hot) water. You gently dislodge debris this way without causing damage to the wound. Steve -- Mark & Steven Bornfeld DDS http://www.dentaltwins.com Brooklyn, NY 718-258-5001 |

| Tooth extraction and salt water mouth rinse questions. I just had three wisdom teeth removed and it was recommended to rinse my moth with a salt water solution. I have looked around and this seems pretty common but I cant find any "Why" about this. What makes this effective? Am I taking my fresh water mouth flora and putting them in a salt water environment? I hear some people also use baking soda and water to rinse there mouths? What's happening in this case? |
