I have a terrible tooth ache from the cavity I got. Orajel lasts 15 min. What can relieve my pain until monday

I do not see the dentist until Monday and I am suffering from the most terrible cavity ever. It is located on the molar, and I rinse my mouth with salt water to dull the pain. I am on Aleve which I believe is the best. Any possible ways I can deal with the pain until Monday?

Aleve, Motrin or Advil at a 600mg dose, are all good anti inflammatory to take for dental problems. Although if your tooth has abscessed these will offer little relief. If you have swelling, drainage or throbbing symptoms, it may be advisable for you to contact your dentist this weekend. He may phone in a prescription for antibiotics and pain med's so you won't suffer all weekend and so treatment can begin early next week.
Reply:Try Excedrin. Also, the active ingredient in sedative fillings that the dentist uses is clove oil. I would try that.
Reply:If it's really bad...take some Motrin. 600 mg. That gum numbing stuff doesn't ever work for me either.
Reply:Try chewing a stick of sugarless gum and placing the wad over the cavity.
Reply:Grass.
