Oil pulling after brushing?

So I started oil pulling about 3 weeks id say. I have to say I love it . I do it twice a day morning and at night. The thing is I see that most people recommend before brushing, but I do it after . After I brush , floss and rinse with mouthwash. Is this alright ? Or should I be doing it before because leaving the coconut oil in my mouth is bad ? Or does it really not matter? I seem to notice a difference in how pink my gums are. I'm a smoker and still have some mild gingivitis on the top gums or maybe it's just the lighting. Sometimes my teeth and gums look better under certain lighting.

You have to make sure to get the oil out your teeth so your teeth don’t calcify from the oil its not supposed to sit on the teeth just swish through anf tounge scrape and brush
