    only if the guaz you have in now has blood on it when you take it out, dont keep packing it in if your not bleeding but if you still habe blood the put it in and keep changing it, good luck

    If the site is not bleeding, there is really no reason to use the gauze. I would rinse after each meal and at bed time with half water and half Hydrogen Peroxide.

    Yes it is ok to put the cotton gauze. It will not harm the healing of the extraction sites.
