Go to the dried herb section of the grocery store look for cloves they taste yuk (aniseedy) but they are really cheap and they are a natural numbing agent for a toothache.
Or look in your kitchen pantry

i hear biting an asprin on the hurting tooth helps but if you don't even have that i would say to rinse with warm salt water because it will clean it well. if you have like 3 bux you can get temporary filling at any drug or grocery store and it helps a lot. most times a tooth ache is caused by an exposed nerve from a break or cavity and if you clean it well and fill it the pain should stop until you can see you're dentist. good luck

Try Tylenol or a dab of brandy on a cotton ball and dab your tooth. When you can get to the store, get some Anbesol. It tastes terrible, but it works. If the pain doesn't subside in a few days, contact your dentist. Good Luck!

clove oil is an old remedy for tooth aches. I think it's bad to swallow too much of it over the long term, but if it's just a temporary fix then it shoudl be ok.
ice might help some if you have it, or if you dont have ice see if you have a bag of frozen peas or other vegetables that might work.

Take a couple of cloves and pound the heads... keep it on the aching tooth, it'll burn but the pain and the burning will subside soon. Or you could mix 1/2 teaspoon of cinnammon with 1 teaspoon of honey and rub it on your gum over the tooth that hurts. It helps.

vanilla extract is numbing. if yout going to the store to get something just get some anbesol or baby orajel. till you can go to the dentist. and dont put an asprin on your tooth , it can harm your gums.

Do you ora-gel--the kind of gel you put on a baby's gums when they are teething? That works.
