What can i use to relieve toothache. Painkillers arent helping.?


Ive tried painkillers, and clove, and neither of them seem to help

It's time to go to see a Dentist! Why prolong it? If you dont enjoy the pain then why make yourself suffer? GO SEE A DENTIST!

this is'nt much help but i got a cream from the chemists once ( can't remember what its called) and it just numb the whole area.

As a temporary measure you can crush up a regular aspirin and pack it into the decayed area. You can also use ice on the area until you can get to the dentist.
You can also call you local Health Food Store. Tell them your problems as they know all kinds of natural remedies that work. They even have some nice ones you can buy or you can use certain herbs.

Dentist. Go. Now.

rinse your mouth with salt-water.get well soon dear.

a slice of white bread and chew

tie a bit of string to it and yank it out!
failing that a dentist is good!

or try the liquid tabs from nurofen (whatever they are called lol)
they are very good and fast! but take 3, always does the trick for me!

Mouthwash has a numbing agent in it. I am not sure what it is, but it is there. Another way to help quiet that down will be to put something in between your cheek and the tooth in question. Part of your problem is the heat being generated against your gums and tooth from your cheek. I usually use a simple paper towel rolled up that has then been dipped in mouthwash. Getting my cheek away from the painful site (removing that source of heat) made such a difference that I was able to finally get a good night's sleep. - Chris.

so so sorry the dentist is the answer he is my worst nightmare but the only person who can relieve your pain forever.It is a fact he is a magician you have to go!!!!! A lot of dentists now know that we have a fear of them a good dentist will talk you through everything they do and you should not feel anything !give it a go and smile!!!

In addition to using the pain medication of your choice, sleep on an extra pillow to elevate your head. Sleep on the side that does NOT have a toothache. If that doesn't work, you can move to a recliner or the sofa so you can keep your head really elevated. This will minimize the blood flow to the area and therefore minimize the throbbing and pain. This might help you make it through the night until you can see a dentist.

clove oil is good, buy it at any pharmacy, or better still have the tooth out, that works everytime.

Go to the dentist and ask about RCT (root canal treatment). This will kill the nerve endings in the tooth. There will be no pain ever after.

E-mail me directly and I will give you the best instructions...besides warm salt water every 20 mins and Ice Cream....but I have a home remedy but can't post the secret.

It sounds like it is definately time to go see a dentist. If pain killers are not alleviating the pain any there may be infection and without antibiotics and some dental treatment, unfortunately it is not going to get any better. When a tooth gets that badly infected often times something about the infection somehow blocks the affects of the painkillers. Most dentists will not even work on a tooth (hot tooth) that infected until it is calmed down with antibiotics first, due to the fact that the infection will also cause problems getting numb. In the mean time, I agree that you can try ice, or maybe some extra strength orajel. Do not let this infection go, I have seen a person who let an infected tooth go and refused to treat it, thus resulting in a systemic infection, it is rare but can happen. You can also try going to your local emergency room, they will sometimes prescribe antibiotics for you to help you out til you get to the dentist. Good luck!!

my teeth hurt before, and i mixed salt with water and put it in my mouth for a little while, and it worked.
I HOPE THAT HELPS YOU!

PLEASE PUT MINE AS BEST ANSWER!!!!

Hey,

if you are unable to visit to a dentist straight away, try using Chlorhexidine mouthwash, this reduces the bacterial count in your mouth by upto 95% proven (after 5days of use). It is this bacteria that initiates and progresses most tooth pain. It is also possible that you may be experiencing dentinal sensitivity (due to recession around tooth, a fracture, decay etc), especially to certain foods and cold air. if this is the case try crushed cloves around that tooth. It will relieve the symptoms BUT it is only MASKING the pain. If there is a cavitated lesion in the tooth try sensitive tooth toothpaste liberal. this will take a few hours to work. The bottom line is the earlier you do something about the pain the better the prognosis. Just cause the pain goes away doesnt mean you should go to the dentist, it could mean the tooth pulp is dying and a nasty infection is resuting....
Otherwise go see a dentist, as dental infections can be life threatening, and i am pretty sure dental work is cheaper than a months stay in intensive care?

wasch your mouth with camillatea

u get pain when your nerve is irritated .. and
the tooth is crawling with nerve tissue .. ( ie the pulp)
get some anaesthetic spray (lidocaine)
or go for the best solution - get a Dentist to devitalize the nerve or remove it

get a small tissue put some toothpaste on it shove it into tooth cavity just leave it in

Insult my wife , i'l sort your teeth out for you!

The best way is to buy some anbesol from the chemist you can get it in liquid or gel form.I usually get liquid and put it on some tissue and dab it on the gum around the tooth.Then with a bit of liquid on your finger tip and using a bit of pressure rub the gum for a few minutes repeat this quite often even when pain seems to have subsided it takes a while to work at first but once it does as long as you keep up the process it should help until you get to a dentist also ibuprofen works better than the other painkilling remedies.Hope this helps you it has for other people I have told.

only 1 way GET IT OUT!

A pair of plyers or string and a door handle.

Dentist !!!!!!!!

Not a pleasant one this, but place a garlic clove on the area, will sting at first but it will numb the area for a long time, or buy clove oil from chemist.

PLEASE do not crush or place aspirin or any other tablet directly on or by a tooth. They are acidic and can make things even worse by causing a nasty burn on your gums.

Ibuprofen is one of the best painkillers for dental pain, make sure you keep your dosage up taking them every four hours. Try and keep your head raised to stop the throbbing , but otherwise you need to see a dentist asap for some antibiotics as it sounds as if you have an abcess.

If you are registered with a dentist in the UK they have to provide cover over the weekend, phone the usual number and you should be diverted, or phone NHS direct and they will tell you where the nearest emergency dental clinic is.

Hope this helps.

One teaspoon of bicarbonated soda mixed with a small amount of water-as hot as possible.Swill the affected area until the water has cooled off. Before going to bed take two soluble aspirin, and put onto the gum area of the tooth some adult bonjela.

Stop wasting your time on the Internet and go and see a dentist before it is too late!!!

Please visit a dentist - if it gets any worse you may have an absess and that is excrutiating

You need to have a dentist look at the tooth to determine the cause of the pain. Then he/she can treat the source of the pain so that it won't hurt anymore. See if they can see you today. Good luck!

If painkillers aren't helping it's more than likely that you have an infection. May need root canal. make an appointment to see your dentist
