In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Make sure you use an iodine-free salt to avoid irritating your tongue. Stir about teaspoon, or 1.25g (0.044oz), of sea salt into 236.59mL (8.000floz) of warm water. Use bottled or distilled water if you have some available. You may be able to find prepackaged, sterile saline solutions made for wound care. These are very good when you don't have time to make your own saltwater. You can prepare the saltwater in advance and store it in the refrigerator until you need it. The best time to use the saline solution is after you eat in the morning and at night. You could also do it when you get up and before you go to bed, but the solution works best when neutralizing leftover food particles. Swirl the solution gently around in your mouth for 10 to 15 seconds before spitting it out. You can use the saline solution 4 or 5 times a day. It's a great alternative to using harsher mouthwashes after every single meal and helps your tongue heal a little faster. Saline solutions are also very good for cleaning piercings you can't remove or touch without problems. Antimicrobial and antibacterial mouthwashes are great to have around your home, especially while your piercing is healing. Alcohol and other antiseptics irritate fresh piercings, so avoid them as much as possible. If you can find mouthwashes designed to treat oral wounds, take advantage of them to help your piercing heal. Look for chlorhexidine mouthwashes at your local drug store or general store. Use a mouthwash no more than 4 to 5 times a day. Try rinsing with mouthwash whenever you eat anything other than water. After the piercing heals in 6 to 8 weeks, you no longer need the mouthwash quite as often and may choose to stop using it entirely. If you continue using it, use it sparingly to avoid it from wearing down your teeth. Swirl it around your mouth for 30 to 60 seconds before spitting it out. Using a mouthwash is especially important when you notice sores or other issues in your mouth. These spots can get infected by bacteria even after the initial piercing has healed.
Summary: Mix salt and warm water to create a healing rinse for fresh piercings. Rinse your mouth with saltwater twice a day until the piercing heals. Use an alcohol-free mouthwash after every meal until the piercing heals. Reduce mouthwash usage to once a day after the piercing heals.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Getting a girl's attention and making an impression is much easier to do when you've surrounded yourself with others. If she sees you as being the center of attention, she may become curious about you, wondering what draws people to you. Try surrounding yourself with friends and getting along with those around you to catch her interest. Try meeting with your friends just before or after the class starts. Be somewhere in the class that she can see you and how well you are engaging with your friends. You might try walking into the class with your friends while you are telling a great story. If you want to make a good impression, it's always a good idea to treat others around you well.

Remember to thank others who help you during class. Always speak supportively and kindly to those around you to help make a good impression.

It's important to engage the instructor and answer or ask questions to help you stand out and make an impression. Try not to be a show off during class. Answering too many questions might make a bad impression. Make sure your questions are actually aimed at furthering the topic under discussion. Don't make inappropriate jokes during the class. Women are generally attracted to men who appear more dominant and confident. To show how confident you are, you can try to establish your space whenever you are around a girl you like. Simply taking up whatever space you need can be a good way to get her attention. When you sit down, feel free to relax and take up whatever space you'd like. For example, you might try extending your arm over an empty chair that you are sitting next to. Stretching your arms up into the air can be a good idea. Try to avoid being too aggressive or obnoxious. Make yourself comfortable, but not if it means making others uncomfortable. There are few things more attractive than a person who is happy, joyful, and having fun. Whenever you are near a girl that you like and with some friends, it can be a good idea to be open about how much fun you are having. People are naturally interested in sharing in good times with others. Enjoying yourself can be a simple and easy way to make an impression. Talk about an exciting idea or project you and friend are working on. Let your enthusiasm show to help catch her attention. Try sharing a joke with your friends before class starts. Make sure you say it loud enough so she can hear it. Talk with your friends about something exciting you have planned, such as going to a concert or going on a trip. Even though you haven't spoken with the girl you are interested in, you might still learn a few things that she is interested in. Knowing what she likes can help you steer your conversations and actions in a direction that can make an impression. You may have noticed that she was reading a book about a certain artist. You can try asking a question about that artist during your art class to show your interest. Maybe she carries a backpack with her favorite band on it. You might try bringing up that band's genre during a music history course. Try talking about something you know she likes with your friends during class.
Summary:
Be the center of attention. Treat others well. Stay active during class. Establish your space. Have fun. Think about what she might like.
