How to reduce toothache?
In the long run you need to see a dentist or it will get even worse.





In the short run get oil of cloves solution from a druggist. Put one powerful drop on the area that hurts and it will go numb and pain-free for hours. It is cheap and effective.





However it is only useful till you go to a dentist and get the real problem taken care of.
Reply:get a dentist to help you
Reply:I'd go to the doctor
Reply:Buy some clove oil.
Reply:Sinus medicine! I know it sounds silly, but there'sa sinus cavity that runs right above your gums. If something happens between the cavity and gums, then the sinuses can drain out through there and cause pain. Try sinus medicine, the goosd behidn the counter stuff, I prefer Advil Sinus. Try it for a day or two and see if it doesn't hep out.

or you could get a hammer a smash your thumb. the pain from your thumb should overwhelm any pain you're feeling in your tooth therebye reducing the perceived pain.
Reply:Put a piece of garlic on it. Also massage the web between your thumb and pointing finger. This works.
Reply:im sorry to tell you there is no substitute for a dentist..but take some sleeping pills or get a quick fix over the counter at the local pharmacy.
Reply:There are many different toothache remedy alternatives and your approach depends on your own personal dental beliefs. Traditional over the counter pain relievers such as aspirin, acetaminophen (Tylenol), and Ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil, Nuprin) often are effective in reducing discomfort. Some patients combine them and rotate taking a different OTC every two hours. Using two or three of the OTCs should be only used temporarily.





Codeine has been used as a toothache remedy for centuries to reduce dental discomfort and is very effective. However, in the United States codeine must be prescribed by a physician or dentist. Physicians are usually more willing than dentists to call this prescription in to a pharmacy without seeing you. In many countries, codeine can be purchased over the counter. Another effective narcotic is hydrocodone ( Vicodin ).





An ancient toothache remedy is Oil of Cloves. The oil reduces tooth pain when placed directly into a tooth cavity. You can apply the oil to the tooth using a Q tip or place a small cotton ball soaked with oil of cloves into the are of the tooth decay. Dentists mix oil of cloves with zinc oxide to create a white paste that makes a soothing temporary filling.





Placing ice or ice water on a tooth reduces the inflammation and can possibly help with the tooth pain. The dentists at the Atlanta Dental Group PC are dedicated to their patients' good health and well being. If the toothache remedy you choose does not immediately reduce your pain or if the dental pain is caused by dead tooth or a dental abscess, you are welcome to join our family of patients.

Rinse your toothache away. Take a mouthful of water (at body temperature) and rinse vigorously, says Dr. Taintor. If your toothache is caused by trapped food, a thorough rinse may dislodge the problem.


Floss gently. If swishing doesn't work, you can try to pry the popcorn hulls or tiny bits of meat out from between your teeth by flossing, says Dr. Taintor. Be gentle! Your gums are likely to be sore.


Take a "shot" to numb the pain. Hold a swig of whiskey over the painful tooth, says Dr. Corn. Your gums will absorb some of the alcohol and that will numb the pain. Spit out the rest.


Rinse with salty water. After each meal and at bedtime, stir 1 teaspoon of salt into an 8-ounce glass of water (again, at body temperature), says Dr. Corn. Hold each mouthful, roll it around your mouth. Spit.


Try a hand massage. When you have an achy tooth, this can ease the pain by 50 percent. Rub an ice cube into the V-shaped area where the bones of the thumb and forefinger meet. Gently push the ice over the area for 5 to 7 minutes.


The doctors also recommend using cloves or clove oil.
Reply:Brandy. Repeat as needed.
Reply:pending a visit to the dentist, rubbing clove oil on it (or placing a clove near the spot) is an ancient toothache remedy.


you could hold ice over it (though this could also hurt like the devil)





you could also try over the counter remedies like aspiring, ibuprofen, or aceteminiphen, depending on your desire/preference. there are also products, like orajel, meant for tooth pain.
Reply:use an ice pack on the tooth...massage the pressure point on the side of the tooth that is hurting...


good luck
Reply:Try one part peroxide and one part water, hold on the tooth for 30 sec. then spit out, it will boil out any food particles that might be stuck, do this after each meal to keep it clean. Try to get you Dr. to give you a prescription for and antibiotic to keep infection away untill you can see a dentist. If there is infection thats why it hurts so much, the pain will let up if you start taking amoxicillan or somthing of that nature
Reply:You should see a dentist ASAP. The pain is indicative of an infection which can kill the tooth necessitating its extraction. The infection can also spread to nearby teeth or use your blood supply to infect other parts of your body. Temporary pain relief is available in topical forms such as the clove oil already mentioned. Cutting a Tylenol tablet in half and placing a part between you gum and cheek will produce temporary relief also. If the pain becomes unbearable, consider using a hospital emergency room.
Reply:Here are several home remedies that work well:





1. Baking soda and warm water, take a larger glass, and gargle/swish in the area of the affected tooth. Repeat as often as the pain begins to return.





2. Clove oil (or eugenol) is very strong and very effective at numbing the area of the toothache. It works much better than just using anbesol or orajel. In the same area of the drug store where you find anbesol, if you other liquid medications, check to see what the active drug is, because a few of them use eugenol. This has been my savior many times.





3. This might sound odd, but putting oregano on your tooth, will help. Oregano has some sort of antibacterial properties. If you can find oil of oregano from your nature store, that works the best, but it is expensive.





I always accompany all of these remedies by taking ibprofen as well. Hope your pain goes away soon.
Reply:Just forget it and all the pain will vanish
