Bad tooth ache...help?
Orajel should help (get it at cvs or market)... See the dentist first thing in the morning. Will probably require root canal and crown to fix. Also take advil.
Reply:Advil.
Reply:i dont know if its called clove oil, or oil of clove, get it out boots. its really good :)
Reply:You can get stuff in the drugstore that will keep her going until Monday. Something like Anbesol or oil of clove will help by numbing the area, plus some Tylenol or other pain reliever.
Reply:I'd head over to the nearest drug store for some Ambisol.
Reply:hot water and salt....





oralgel also works well...





or take painkillers....
Reply:asprin take at least 4-6 .......every four hours ....... and also if you can find an antibiotic take it., just check on the internet to see where the antibiotic effects ....... good luck .........
Reply:If she has a regular dentist they should have a forwarding number for emergencies and I would consider this pretty important especially since she is in pain. Call the office and the machine should have a number to call. They will refer her to someone that is open or taking calls for them.
Reply:Tell her to go to the drug store and purchase some orajel..
Reply:Ibuprofen, you can attempt to rub molasses and cloves on the area or just suck on some. This is used in sedative temporary filling material.


If it is extreme she may have to go to the ER for pain relief.
Reply:Washing your mouth out with salt water works good. I also heard Clove oil works.
Reply:Advil or "Brufein" %26lt;-- not the correct spellign but they're small pink pills mostly known for toothaches .





but most dentists recommand advil , i do too , it really kills the pain !
Reply:i agree with angel. your dentist should have an emergency number. in the meantime, try taking 800 mg ibuprophen and 1 hour later take 1000mg tylenol. alternate this throughout the night. orajel or ambesol may help too.
