S44M KT Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Hey guys, im in absolte agony with tootache, to the point where im in tears. I've had it since saturday afternoon and when i rang the out of hours dentist i was told there was nothing they can do until monday. Its now early hours monday morning and im at whits end. I have a hole in the side of my tooth and i think the nerve must be exposed. I know im going to need a root canal which im definately not looking forward to. I just wondered if anyone had any useful tips on what i can do to ease the pain for a few hours til the dentist is open. Ive alreday tried the following with no success; Oragel Clove Oil Listerine Mouth Wash Antiseptic Mouth Wash Tramadol Cocodamol Paracetamol Heat Patch Cold Patch im running out of ideas now. There is no way i will be able to sleep with this pain, i barely managed to sleep last night. Any help would be much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Just keep using the clove oil, I know it tastes like crap but it is about the best you will get. Whiskey is the next best thing. Oh, you could get pissed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Could you not just have a filling? Why are you going to have to have a root canal done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S44M KT Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 ive had this problem before andd thats what they done last time. fingers crossed they can pack the tooth with medicine and fill it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w41k3r Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 the have a few swift whiskeys to take yer mind of it might be a good idea, carnt believe the clove oil hasn`t worked norm is very good. By all means not a good idea but when my mate had bad toothache he was in so bad pain he started snappin the pain killers with the liquid in and pouring them on to his tooth in the end think it killed his nerve, no pain but after that the tooth fell apart as he never went to the dentist after it. Long story i know and not much help but hey its late lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephendjb Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Sounds strange but I used to have really bad tooth ache & incredibly enough chewing blue extra chewing gum actually used to sort it out NO idea why but it worked for me & could be worth a try till you can get in to the dentist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
