I asked A'isha what Allah's Apostle ﷺ did first when he entered his house, and she replied: He used tooth-stick (first of all).

سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ قُلْتُ بِأَىِّ شَىْءٍ كَانَ يَبْدَأُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا دَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ قَالَتْ بِالسِّوَاكِ

Whenever Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered his house, he used tooth-stick first of all.

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا دَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ بَدَأَ بِالسِّوَاكِ

When the Prophet ﷺ entered the privy, he removed his ring. Abu Dawud said: This is a munkar tradition, i.e. it contradicts the well-known version reported by reliable narrators. On the authority of Anas the well-known version says: The Prophet ﷺ had a silver ring made for him. Then he cast it off. The misunderstanding is on the part of Hammam (who is the narrator of the previous tradition mentioned in the text). This is transmitted only by Hammam.

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا دَخَلَ الْخَلاَءَ وَضَعَ خَاتَمَهُ

"What would the Messenger of Allah ﷺ do as soon as he entered the house?" She replied: "(He would use) the siwak."
