I have this tooth ache…and it’s a cavity with a big hole in it. It hurts so bad that my ear and my head be killing me. I suppose to be going to the dentist Saturday, but I cant wait. I want to know if I could take it out myself, the thing is….the tooth is located in the back of my mouth….yes it a wisdom tooth. What should I do?

It is not best to take it out yourself, the roots will be there. BUT I took out several of mine that needed root canals done. I went a head and took them out until I had the money for the root canal. The pain went away immediately! OK I lied I took them out myself for I am terrified of dentists! Until I found the guy I have now.
I still have another root canal I have to have done, no pain now though!
You only have a couple days to go....

Tooth Ache
I'll never forget using Toothache Wax and putting it in the tooth cavity. The toothache was bad enough but the taste of cloves in that toothache wax made it "yucky" ! Doris Goldsborough
From an old book that I have - copyright 1879 -Home & Health and Home Economics by C.H. Fowler,D.D., LL.D., and W.H.DePuy, A.M., D.D.: "Toothache Cures.- Relief from toothache or neuralgic affections arising from teeth in any stage of decay, may often be obtained by saturating a small bit of clean cotton or wool with a strong solution of ammonia, and applying it immediately to the affected tooth. The pleasant contrast in-stantaneously produced sometimes causes a fit of laughter, although a moment before extreme suffering and anguish prevailed" [I AM SURE THEY MEANT SPIRITS OF AMMONIA and not the household ammonia we now use!] Doris Goldsborough
For a abscessed tooth put a Tea Bag on it or a clean cloth with a bit of bulk tea in it--just moisten enough so it will cover the tooth and hold it there, don't remember for how long but probably till the tooth stopped hurting. I have had it do good for me when I had Teeth. LOL Dorothy
Take a hole clove after taking off the end bud/horns, place between gum and effected tooth. It takes about 2 minutes to begain being effective. Mike
I was surprised to see that to relieve the pain for a toothache, dab whiskey on the root of the tooth, and the gums below/around the tooth wasnt listed. Works better than ambesol or anything out there. HavUSeenMyMarbl

Don't take it out yourself. Call the dentist office and tell them. Hopefully the dentist can get you in sooner. If not, try some orajel or take some pain relievers. May it will help. I have had toothaches. One that was done 7 years ago (Root canal) is starting to hurt and so is my wisdom tooth, which is to the point were it is sticking in my jaw and it look as though it has a hole like my other tooth that I had to get pull was.Toothaches are no joke.

It's probably an abscess in your tooth, just see a dentist and get drained, some medication and gone in a short while.

Those back teeth have the longest roots as well as bent, they are not straight like the others. Try this, go to the store and buy some Oral Gel. it's liquid in a swab, very easy to use and works temporarily. I feel your pain... there are some MEAN nerves in the mouth.

You probably have an abscess. Call your dentist and ask them to perscribe you an antibiotic. It will fight the infection and therefore alleviate the pain...at least some. Ask them to call you if they can get you in any sooner. Whatever you do, do NOT leave this untreated. Abscesses can be very harmful.
