painkillers are going to be in the only thing that will help possibly, but u did not really give much detail on type of pain or area, i pressume ure in the US i am in UK and we rec nurofen extra which has codeine in it, for toothache, those dentists are heartless to not see you unless you have the money upfront. lot of money as well
good luck i hope u find a solution

I am in the same boat as you in agony..trying to find an afterhours dentist to pull this darn wisdom tooth out..they want $750!! ouch....having no coverage really sucks. Regarding your pain...I am taking large amounts of Motrin which is excellent for toothache...also I have tylenol #2 I am also applying Orajel on the site about evey hour or so to attempt to freeze the pain. Do you think your tooth area is infected? If so you will need to clear up the infection before they can operate...good luck, I truly do know how you feel...I want to cry with this pain and go into the tool box and find something to do the dirty job! But I guess I have to wait. Go to the pharmacists and get some Motrin and Orajel..... good luck.

take 2 paracetamol and 2 hours later take 2 ibuprofen.
stick to it on the hour!!! or you'll run the risk of overdose.
it's a little like morphine if you take it like this.
