go get some benzodent (made for sore in your mouth) and put in around that area and it makes it feel numb for quite a while, Just continue doing it until you get to a dentist. It works 100 times better than toothache medicine.
Reply:Maybe sleep allot.
Reply:If you lost a filling or of you think that you may have a crack in your tooth - then you can go to the pharmacy (24hour) sometimes has a staff member on call at all hours. They sell temp filling that works really well ntil you can see your DDS.
Reply:There is a generic form of Naproxen available over the counter, which is slightly smaller milligrams than what some doctors prescribe for pain and inflammation, I have an abscess and it has helped a lot, it may upset your stomach a little, but would you rather deal with that or your tooth, and it is really not all that bad when you consider being in constant pain. It is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that really helps, just make sure that you follow the dosage.
Reply:Warm salty rinses, but no heat on the outside of your face. Aleve is the best thing for a toothache when buying OTC.
Reply:If you old enough try the old southern remedy swish some whisky around your mouth for about a minut just dont swallow it alcohol thins the blood and it will hurt worse when the alcohol wears off but it will numb your mouth and really help with the pain.
Reply:I don't know what you've taken so far, so make sure you are at the end of the dosing cycle before doing this....As long as you are not allergic and a normal adult weight (90lbs and up), you can take 4 advils (every 6 to 8 hours) AND 2 tylenols. (every 4 to 6 hours). The first dose won't be as effective as the next. Don't take more than I've listed. Take a hot bath to help relax your body and get some rest. To help rest you can also pop back 50mg of Benadryl
Reply:You can try some clove oil. you can also try some analgesics such as aceclofenac tablets.
