If your teeth or tooth is abscessed, then you'll have to get it handled professionally. The infection can be devastating if allowed to run rampant throughout your body.
I'm not trying to scare you but that's the real truth of the matter.

I'm so sorry, but unfortunately, it can't be avoided. Here's how it works: You get a cavity, it starts to hurt. To fill it and fix it = $0-150 (depending on insurance) You put it off, cavity gets deeper (can take 3-6 months,) you now need a crown = $1000 You further put it off (again, 3-6 months), you now need root canal and crown = $1000 for EACH You love pain and keep putting it off (could be any day after the root canal is needed) now you need extraction = $100's, but now you have a hole in your mouth and all your teeth start shifting and tilting. Not trying to scare you, but truly there is no way to home remedy a cavity. You can only dull the pain a little temporarily. Your best bet is to get it fixed ASAP to avoid worse pain and more money. Sorry, and Good Luck!

until it becomes unbearable and u have the worst pain in ur life. usually happens in the middle of the night, a weekend, or a holiday when there are no dentists around to help. and if u wait that long and go to an emergency dentist u will be paying so much more. why dont u just go now and deal with it? if u dont have money try to borrow it or find a way to make payments or sumthing. u can also die from getting an infection in ur mouth

1. You can apply Oral Jel on the tooth that is causing you pain. It will help to numb the tooth and not make it be in so much pain.
2.You can let a Tylenol melt onto the tooth. It sounds nasty but it helps more than you just swallowing the pill. Trust me it works wonderfully.
Good Luck! Hope your tooth gets better.....Toothaches are no fun. I had one about a month ago.

If you do not have it in the house, get a pint of HYDROGEN PEROXIDE at the drug store. It is about 60 cents a pint and one dollar a quart.
Take a mouth full and gently brush your teeth thoroughly with it morning and night. IT KILLS PAIN VERY QUICKLY and heals oral infections and oral medical problems.
I have used it for 42 years and have healed infections in the root of a tooth, the pain after flossing, cold sores or canker sores (which ever you call them) It is amazing and cheap.
I have mediocre teeth and keep my gums really healthy so I have no more dental problems. I have done it 3 to seven times a week for all of these years and keep healthy gums.
Good Luck and Happy New Year.
