Answer 2

It actually depends where the infection is. If it's just the gum then rinse with warm salt water,& take ibuprofen if it's the nerve & root canal (abscess) there is nothing anyone but the dentist can do. Local anaesthetic will not work until the infection has cleared up. Go back to your dentist, at the very least he may give you stronger painkillers. Edit. if you have been told it is an abscess do not put a hot water bottle on your face. It may well swell !

Answer 3

Put a plain aspirin on the tooth and let it melt on the tooth that is hurting, also a warm heating pad or washcloth really helps too. I know how she feels I have alot of ear aches and the only thing that helps is heat on my ear.

Answer 4

Clean the tooth out. Food will make the nerve act up. Gargle with salt water.

Answer 5

Or try clove oil

In the end an abcess tooth hurts like no tomarrow.. been there done that..

Answer 6

Call up her dentist and tell the dentist that she can't sleep due to the pain, you'll get a prescription, far better than anything OTC.
