they tell you not to do this,but i know it works!i have had bad teeth all of my life,until i finally got them pulled!but,i do know for sur that putting a heating pad on the side of your face where it hurts,kills the pain!and oral gel maximum strentgh is always a good cure too!but that can make your gums raw or sensitive!so i would definetely use the heating pad!

Over the counter Oragel or Ambasol work pretty well. Oil of cloves is okay, if all you have is a spicerack you can hold a whole clove against the area and get a little relief. Once at least some of the pain is gone, gargle with hydrogen peroxide. It's usually the infection that causes the pain so keep it clean and see a dentist. I wish you the best and I hope you're better soon.

The only permanent cure is to have it pulled. If it's hurting, then the cavity has reached the root. You can ease the pain temporarily, but it won't go away. You can probably get a root canal done, but they're very expensive ($800-$900) and there's no guarantee it won't have to be pulled anyway in the future. You should definitely try to save a front tooth, but if it's in the back, just get it pulled. It will never hurt again.

Go to your dentist and get your teeth or tooth fixed. Besides that if your tooth is loose and its a baby tooth pull it out yourself.Don't eat sugar and don't drink cold water and start brushing your teeth more often !

Clove oil until you can see a dentist. You can buy it in the dental care section at the grocery store. It is a little tiny bottle. You apply it with a q-tip. Temporary fix! You must see a dentist.
