The first step is to choose a good toothbrush.
You always want to use a soft brush with a small head.
A soft brush is hard enough to remove plaque and soft enough not to damage your teeth or gum.
The next issue is to choose a good toothpaste.
In general any toothpaste that contains Fluoride will do the job, unless you have a special need that is determined by your dentist.
Two of the best brands of toothpastes are Colgate Total and Crest Multicare.
Hold the brush with a 45 degree angle toward the teeth and the gum.

1- Pressure should be placed on the gauze pad that has been put over the extraction site for one hour.
If the bleeding continues new gauze should be placed and pressure applied for another 45 minutes.
2- If you are supervising children who have had an extraction done, make sure they don't bite on their numb lips or tongue (it can cause serious injury to their soft tissue).
3- Avoid eating or drinking anything hot on the day of your extraction.
Also, do not rinse your mouth and do not use a straw for drinking.
