What should be done after surgery to maintain oral hygiene? I have purchased the following Biotene products which were recommended by the OCF: mouth wash, mouth moisture spray, super soft tooth brushes, toothpaste.

How soon after surgery can my brother uses these products? If he can use them immediately, I will see that he has them in the hospital.

I know this is a minor question, but these preparations are something I can do right now and they make me feel better.
