Toothache

I've never had it before, but it's a right bugger ain't it?

You can try remineralise it if its a small cavity, wash teeth after everything you eat. Once you have cleaned them, put another lot of tooth paste in you mouth and swiil it round leaving it on you teeth inbetween eating, and overnight.

Works for me after a few days, i do this all the time, cut all sugar out too and swill mouth after drinking.

It hurts to swill

For me, listerine directly on it usually stop the pain if its a cavity. Get to the the dentist mate, i do all the aboce to avoid them lol

Unfortunately, a trip to the dentist seems to be the only known cure.



If you have any pain meds left over from previous injuries, etc.... they tend to work well till you can see a dentist.

Clove oil tastes foul, but stops the pain. Or you can get something called toofy pegs from your pharmacy, a temporary filling.

Tooth decay is like rust, the only way to get rid of it propperly is to grind it off or remove the affected item, numbing the pain or putting a temporary patch in the cavity is only a short term fix & it will allow the cavity to worsen causing more discomfort & ultimately a bigger job & more discomfort at the dentist.

Step 1 - Find a peice of string.
Step 2 - Tie said piece of string to door handle.
Step 3 - Tie other end of said string to offending tooth.
Step 4 - Slam door as hard as possible, removing tooth from head. Thereafter collect tooth and drink lots of whiskey/rum/vodka/anyting else with alcohol in to *ahem* clean affected area..and of course, numb the pain!


Job's a good'un!

a good dose of malt whisky - always works for me
