Toothache

arrghhh I’ve had toothache all night and all day today and its sooo sore anyone know how to get rid of it except from going to the dentist? (I have an appointment in 3 weeks)

Answer #1

thats only for ulcers dude it doesnt work for toothache

Answer #2

mmm they say mouth pain is the worst pain =/ I’ve had my share it sucks. try an ice pack on the jaw area where it hurts and take an advil, tylenol, ibruprofen ect. for pain. origel or any over the counter tooth gels help bc they num the area. good luck hope it feels better!

Answer #3

I used this tiny orajel lotion thing, that I brought from the supermarket, you could find it at chemists + places like that 2 . you just dab a little bit on your tooth, your mouth will go numb a bit, then the pain will go off for a while. :]]

Answer #4

Actually, salt water is supposed to help toothache.

Make sure the water is warm, and hold it over the tooth for several seconds before spitting it out.

You might need to resort to painkillers like Aspirin or Tylenol.

Answer #5

you need to go to a dentist asap. why wait 3 weeks? they all will take an emergency situation which this is. if they refuse, go to yellowpages.com and find another one near by you can’t suffer for 3 weeks it won’t get any better, if anything it will get worse if you can believe it. that’s the only way to make the pain go away. even the emergency room won’t be able to help you, gotta see a dentist!!!

Answer #6

If the nerve is exposed, it may cause some pain, but the warm water and salt are meant to ‘numb’ the tooth.

You could also try orajel, but a cracked tooth - well, there’s not too much that will help that until you get to the dentist.

There is some stuff you can get at the pharmacy though - it’s a ‘temporary filling’. You put it on your tooth to keep anything from touching the nerve.

Answer #7

If the nerve died it couldn’t have come back; once its gone its gone. You need to see a dentist, cause a cracked tooth can cause a lot of problems beyond pain. Opening a beer with your teeth is stupid no matter what. If you do the salt water thing, it might sting cause you can still feel around the tooth. You really need to see a dentist.

Answer #8

I’ve took like millions of painkillers, I took 8 last night to try and knock myself out so I could get sleep but when I woke up this morning it was still sore, the reason why its sore is cause a couple of months ago I tried to open a bottle of beer with my teeth cause I can do it, but it kinda cracked my tooth and now theres a hole in it, the nerve died and I was fine but its grew back, and now the entire side of my face is sooo sore.

if I do the salt water thing will it hurt?

Answer #9

its cool peoples I got the tooth taken out :D thanks for the advice thooo :)

Answer #10

Put whisky on it to take the pain away untill you go to the dentist :)

Answer #11

rinse your mouth with salt and waterr.[dont swallow]

Answer #12

You know what, everything is as deep as a subject, that needs to be studied. Actually, a lot of people don’t really know that the problem of toothache is not just on the your teeth, but toothache rather reflects your entire health condition. I am from China, and the medical perspective on any health issue is based on the principle of that, one phenomenon reflects another, and links with another. Like I said, if you really want to know the best way to get rid of a toothache,then you need to know a whole lot of other things, essentially YOURSELF… I recommend you this book, and hope that you can also tell people around you who also have such problem. And knowledge definitely benefits everyone powerfully.. I know I am not offering any quick solutions, but this will prevent your future dental problems.
