I have a terrible tooth ache. I have a wisdom tooth coming out. What can I do to alleviate the pain besides OraGel?

here's a great old remedy ( from Grandma) take a clean cotton sock, set aside' take a few cups of salt and put into a pan, heat it up(salt doesnt burn) let it get really hot.. then use a funnel of some sort and put the salt in the sock and tie it off... take a towel and rest your affected side , put the towel near the area then apply the salt filled sock.. let it work for a bit... repeat a few times. even sleep with it (under your pillow case.... It works!!
Also a crushed asprin right on the area works too....

The best thing is to take IB Profen. It really kills the pain and it isn't an addictive medication.
