How to get rid of a toothache?
Nothing will take the ache away for long and you can't live on pain pills. Not taking care of them could wind up costiing you a lot more down the road, especially if they move or ruin your teeth. Bite the bullet, find the money and go to the dentist.

Reply:Try Orajel
Reply:tylenol, ice packs, ambesol. when mine first started to come in, chewing gum back there seemed to help for me.
Reply:if you can take aspirin then take one and place it over the area of the tooth. Let it dissolve on the spot. Its bitter and nasty tasting but it helps.
Reply:The pain of cutting teeth isn't really the same thing as a toothache. The pain you feel comes from your gums. It is, in fact, the same thing as when a baby is teething. You might try ice or you could buy some Orajel...it numbs your gums topically. Other than that, perhaps some ibuprophen.
Reply:I would suggest using oragel....or a great home remedi that my granny taught me....boil a regular tea bag in a cup of water in the microwave for about 30 seconds...take the tea bag out and make sure it is warm but not too hot....pat it against your gums and aching teeth....it will soothe the pain for you!
Reply:Sorry the only true and long term way to get rid of the pain is to have them taken out. You can try Ibuprofen to reduce pain and any swelling, and make sure to keep the areas clean by brushing well and flossing and using a good mouthwash.


You could check into payment plans, there is CareCredit which is a medical, dental, and vet credit card that has interest free plans depending on the length of time and amount needed.
Reply:Keep some hot water in your mouth for some time, repeat it 5-6 times,u'll feel better.Best home remedy is to keep 2 cloves at the spot which is affected by pain. Add some drops of lemon and salt in mustard oil and gently massage over the affected area.Hope these tips will work for you and relieve you from pain.
Reply:If you're sure the pain is coming from your wisdom teeth then this is usually quite normal and should go away after a day or two. It's clinical name is pericoronitis if you want to look it up.


Just keeping the area clean at the back and making sure no food or anything gets trapped there is the best thing to do. Mouthwashes or even warm saltwater rinses 2/3 times a day will help.





If the pain doesn't go away though and keeps coming back you should definately go see a dentist. This might turn into something more complicated and it may even get infected.





To be sure it's pericoronitis and not a decayed tooth, does it hurt (dull pain) when you push your finger on the gum on and around the tooth? If it does then it's probably normal, if it doesn't and gives you a sharp pain on eating/drinking it could be decay. Both are possible causes so more info would be helpful.


Depending on what the situation is exactly, and how many times the pain keeps coming back extraction would be the last choice, so don't worry about it for now.
Reply:take some pliers, then slowly rip them out of your mouth


i ended up looking like a hillbilly, but hey i have no more pain
Reply:Never place an aspirin directly in your mouth. It is very caustic and will burn the tissue in the area. If you need to relieve the pain, swallow it. Get to a dentist. There is no way you can self treat and end up with a pain free mouth - for very long anyway. Get it diagnosed and get the treatment and be done with it.
