Drink straight cranberry juice - 8 - 12 ounces (preferably on an empty stomach). It kills infections. That's what I do for toothaches, other infections, fevers..... (Warming it takes a lot of the sour out. Plug your nose & chug! It's not so bad! ... honest!) CJ is available at health food stores and most grocery stores. Do not use fruit blends or "cocktails" to kill infections.)
Hope you feel better. :)
P.S. Repeat dose if required. One dose usually knocks mine out (quickly!).

If I found myself in a town with no insurance in a strange town. I would go to a bar on the dark side of town, not a sports bar or gentlemen's club. But a bar next to a welding shop or something where ordinary folks go. Then I would ask the bartender which one of his patron's has reasonably good teeth. Then I would find this person and ask him who his dentist is. Chances are it isn't Dr. Rich (no offense). I would ask this person if he likes his dentist. I would repeat as necessary until I finally found the person who wont shut up about how great and gentle their dentist is. Ask for the name and go to that office. I would pay cash and probably get a big discount and get better attention as the person who reffered me has such a big mouth, the dentist dare not risk the chance of bad PR.
Don't know. Seems to work from my side.

Press the muscle among your thumb and forefinger. Find a point there which is more pain then other when pressed.
Press that point hardly in both of you hands, it can recude tooth ache.

to relieve the pain get a teabag and put it in hot water...get the tea bag as hot as you can stand it and put it on the tooth that hurts and bit down (not hard just bite) leave it there till it is cold it will relieve pain and the tea leaves will draw out the abscess of the infected tooth.

Find a dentist that is based on income. In the mean time, go to the emergency room/ dr and they can give you pain killers.
I hear salt water gargling works.
Also, if it is a cavity you can buy this putty stuff at any local drug store to plug up your cavity until you can reach a dentist!
