Firstly soon after extraction, the patient must bite and keep in place the cotton or gauze pad for atleast 30 minutes to arrest bleeding. Avoid too hot food, start taking a soft or liquid diet, avoid forceful spitting or sipping using a straw. Do not rinse or brush forcefully in the extracted region. Avoid palpation of the site with the tongue or hand. Smoking is not advised. Take necessary medications that the dentist prescribes.
