How to stop this toothache?
Call your dentist and see if they cannot move up your aoointment. If nothing else, see if they can prescribe something to help you out until your appointment. They can only do that though, if you have been seen there before. You can also try some Motrin or Advil (same thing) up to 800mg per dose every eight hours, as long as you are not allergic to this med. Motrin is an anti-inflammatory drug and may help some with the pain. Do not put a warm pad on the area. If you have an infection there, it will only make it worse and possibly swell up. There is a reason people often wake up with swelling in the morning. The warm bed accelerated the infection.





Another option is to make an appointment with another dental office for an emergency visit. Your regular dentist should understand, if they cannot move up your appointment.
Reply:take some orajel. it works great for tooth pain and be careful not to eat on the side of the pain.
Reply:If the pain is really that bad and persistent, call the dentist's office and asked to be seen earlier than your appointment. Many dentists' offices can find time in the schedule to see an emergency, and it sounds like you really can't wait until your appointment. If your dentist won't see you, you might consider calling a different office and explain your situation, that you can't wait for your appointment, and need to see someone as soon as possible.
Reply:Advil
Reply:Orajel and pain killers. I can suggest some herb medicine and it works for many people but if it does not work for you and gets worse you will come back and sue me. This can only happen in USA.


Like your dentist, he has to schedule you according to first come basis and how soon the patient needs the Dentist services.


Every thing has to be documented and X ray ed to save the dentist from someone filing law suit against and claiming his life savings which he will loose if the patient wins the case.
Reply:Clove oil is the best home remedy for toothaches. Even dentists use it. I found the information at http://aches.in/toothacheremedies.html useful
