thairs a dental hospital in newcastle its a massive
bulding you can walk in off the street and if you are in pain
thay will treat you and its free.
i dont no of any other places like it in the uk
but maybe thair are others, its like a training hospital
so you may get treatment from a student.
i went and had a tooth took out with no problems.
i dont think other answers have read your question
properly about not being able to pay high prices
so like i say dental hospital is free good luck

It depends. If it's caused by an infection which is closed, no, you would get an absessed tooth and it would continue to hurtuntil the dentist drills it to relieve the pressure. If you have a cavity, that pain can go away but it will eventually come back. If you have dental erosion, ie your gums are slightly receding and a bit of your root has recently becom exposed, your tooth will be sensitive for a while but that pain will eventually go away. (The erosion will still be there you will just desensitize.) If the pain is due to a new filling where metal is meeting new metal that pain will take a while but it will eventually also go away. Since the toothache going on it's own doesn't necessarily mean the problem is resolved, I would recommend you see a dentist.

Toothaches can go away on it's own. But if you do have a toothache now I would go to your dentist right away. The toothache means that you probably have a cavity and you need to get it filled right away. If you don't get it filled now it could get worse.

Yes. Sometimes a tooth can ache from sensitive gums and react with pain that makes you wonder if it's a cavity. Or you could have a particle of food stuck down the gum next to it. I would floss good and gargle with warm salt water (very healing) when ever, and as frequent as you get the chance. if it doesn't ease up in a few days, call a dentist.

Yes, but it tends to be temporary and then comes back with a vengence. Probably best to go to a dentist to avoid having to get an emergency appointment in the future. If it's mild, it could be a warning of something more serious to come if the problem is not dealt with. Go now - it will save you money and suffering in the long run.

Only when the decay rots the nerve away or the tooth falls out, looking like a blackened shell... so it's kind of better to see the dentist before that happens. You'll have to suffer a lot of pain over a long period of time rather than a bit of pain over a short period of time if you don't see the dentist!

Yes. Pure Vanilla helps. Put some on a cotton swab & apply to tooth. Toothache gone.

Not generally unless the nerve dies and that means your tooth has rotted away which probably means an absess.. which makes toothache seem like a picnic in terms of pain.
It hurts less to have the thing pulled and sound like the gopher from Winnie the Pooh

No it won't, if anything it could be worse for the healthy teeth - it's called a DOMINO EFFECT. If it's for you or a friend...please go and have it checked out immediately. You can't grow back teeth...protect the ones you have.

It may come and go but will eventually get worse and worse. If you don't get a filling now you will need a root canal later as the decay gets worse - more expensive & more painful!! And if the root canal isn't done properly or in time you may need the whole tooth taken out.....bla...bla...bla. I have had similar troubles!!! Therefore my advise is to PLEASE PLEASE go to the dentist as soon as you can and nip this problem in the bud!
