The irrigator syringe is, well, it's a plastic syringe that holds water and has a curved plastic "needle" (really just a pointed plastic end that the water comes out of). It's *really * helpful for getting stuff out of the extraction site, and lets you eat more than just liquids and mushy foods. It also helps you to not develop dry sockets again after the yucky tasting dressings are gone. You basically fill it with salt water, point toward the center of the hole in the back of your mouth, and plunge. It gets everything out a lot more easily than just rinsing.
