I have a bad toothache, it just started today, but it's a tooth that has bothered me before. I know it has a big hole in it, I can feel it. How do I subdue the pain until I can go to the dentist? I have to find a dentist to go to so I'm not sure how long it'll be before I can go. So, other than pills, is there a way to ease the pain? (Aren't toothaches the worst??? I hate them...)

Gels don't usually work on me for some reason. This is a deep root pain too, gels are more for gum pain.

You can try rinsing with warm salt water, swishing it between the teeth. There are also gels that can be applied to numb the pain, which can be found at most drug stores.

I'm really sorry about your toothache, THEY ARE THE WORST, I've always hated them and cringe whenever I have them, just thinking about it makes my teeth hurt, other than gels I don't know what's good for them, but i hope it gets better, i really do, i have sympathy for those with toothaches. feel better.

Try putting whisky on some cotton wool and placing it on the tooth. And don't delay getting to the dentist.

try using clove oil or put a whole clove on the tooth that is bothering you, it usually works as a temporary measure
