As user2661940 said you can use glyphicons for Bootstrap 3 or you can also make your own class for every side. For example

.caret-right {
  display: inline-block;
  width: 0;
  height: 0;
  margin-left: 2px;
  vertical-align: middle;
  border-left: 4px solid;
  border-bottom: 4px solid transparent;
  border-top: 4px solid transparent;
}
