Tooth Ache Remedy

toothache treatment

The surest remedy for a toothache is to visit your dentist. But here's a couple other remedies you can try before going under the drill.

Toothache Remedies you can try first:

  • Rinse out your mouth with lukewarm salty water or antibacterial mouthwash like 'Listerine'.
  • Floss between the affected teeth to get out trapped food particles.
  • Wrap some ice in a towel and apply it over the toothache to deaden the nerves.
  • Use a dropper and squirt some Clove Oil along the tooth margin - works spectacularly well.
  • Ask your pharmacist for a pain killer like aspirin, ibuprofen e.t.c.

Most toothaches are caused by bacteria in your mouth attacking food stuck between your teeth causing an inflammatory toothache reaction. But not all toothaches are from your teeth e.g. a sinus infection in your cheek can feel like a toothache of your upper molars. So if the remedies above don't tone down your pain you'll need to make a call to your dentist for help.
