Does anyone know any tricks to stop a tooth ach until i can get to the dentest?

...

kamal_nay	Clove would definitely help. Also make ur mind forget about the pain.

dean p	dip a cotton ball in some whiskey and place it on your tooth

jordon t	try rubbing lemon on your gum and tooth and then swill the juice around in your mouth :)

edenissimo	yeah - take pain killers, put something warm on the outside area, e.g. a hot water bottle, (but warm not hot) and sometimes i find a Gentle massage with your fingers helps on your cheek by the tooth or whatever. good luck

steffy6101	stick a Clove in it

ver	gurgle with salt water . :P

Tarlyng	1. A tea bag that has been brewed with the excess water squeezed out leave just a little water in it.. (if you can tolerate a bitter taste of non-herbal tea; it will not work if you use any other kind) 2. A plain Aspirin. Let it dissolve over the tooth. ( another bitter taste) 3. Oil of clover. Just drop/ dab will do. (not as bad as the first two as far a taste)

william5109	An old wives tale says a piece of raw potato,I've been told

montpelier42	Well pain killer help but cloves are supposed to be good for toothache

dawsiat	eat ice, dont chew it, just kiknd of let it melt on your tooth, it hurts like the dickens at first, but then it will feel better... im too going through this now, i called my aunt up crying cause i thought i would die and praying wasnt helping lol, and she suggested this, i doubted her but when all other options failed, i tried it and now im pain free

☼Jims Brain☼	A warm teabag or Benzocaine.medicine.

Can We Talk?	Try rinsing your mouth for about five minutes with Hydrogen Peroxide. As soon as you can, see your dentist.

tigger says	clove oil, teething gel used for baby's teething or a heat pack ( cloth bag filled with grain ya microwave) otherwise Morphine is also good.

nik	Try chewing a Clove :)

rocco	rub bourbon on it...works every time

whirlwind_123	I agree with two others, the Clove oil. You will probably have to ask for it at the pharmacy, will not usually find it at the spices and herbs. You can apply it using your finger or a qtip. Whatever you do, try not to swallow it as it may cause your belly to feel a bit unsettled. I have used Clove oil several times and it works great. If you can't find any, use listerine. Hold some in your mouth where the tootache is and the alcahol in it will help numb the pain.

sensualfeyz	Either Bonjela or Clove oil, really works, numbs the pain

lizarddd	Clove oil is the best remedy so Ive been told

aisha_neutral	daydreaming

sweet_lil_cannibal	Excedrin or Anbesol

shynecan	try Clove oil, you can get it from your local pharmacy, it will be able to numb the area until you get to the dentist :)

Elizabeth Dreams	oil of cloves tincture is good, or the alternative drug free, jaw tapping with the tips of the fingers just where your jaw turns up to your ear, about 150 times per minute (not hard). both work well.

TheAmberOtter	peppermint extract, you can get it at the supermarket. just rub it on the gums.

Tina	here are some peoples remedies>>>http://www.otan.us/webfarm/emailproject/tooth4.htm

Neo_Apocalypse	Ice.

skivi	suck mints, put bonjela or anbesol on it, or shove cotton wool into the space between your tooth and your cheek.

Just a Guy	Whiskey is good.

Lilmisssassy	take abot 3 tyenol and drink a 5th of whiskey an smoke a doobie...ull forget your tooth hurts..but maybe ur name too

Ice Queen	nip to the chemist and get some Oil Of Clove and some cotton buds. Rub some on the gum and tooth with the cotton bud. Then try not to touch it for a while. Some uber strength pain killers before hand will help you get through. I have managed two days like this before. Good luck mate.
