Hello there... we advice the patients not to rinse for the next 12 hours so as to prevent the dis-lodgement of the clot.... Sine you have already done it thats fine....Dry socket incidence is usually more in case of third molars removal owing to the thick bone and less vascularity. Dry socket usually sets in only after 3-4 days of extraction...its has various other reasons as well... Rinsing alone wouldnt cause dry socket...if you are a smoker avoid smoking for the next couple of days... Your immune system will take care of the healing...

Hello
Welcome to HCM
I would like to tell you that warm saline rinses should be done 24 hrs after extraction but any how it won't lead to dry socket.Dry socket occurs due to smoking & drinking after extraction.So such habits should be avoided 7 days post extraction.Moreover you should do betadine gargles twice a day for 10 days.Your stitches will be removed after 7 days.Also continue your prescribed medicines.
Try to maintain proper oral hygiene & visit your dentist for regular check up.

Take Care
Regards
