Escape From Toothache Terror

November 7, 2008


The malady of a toothache is known only to those who have experienced it. And those who haven’t had such an acquaintance know well that there is no need for such an experience to have.

The gums surrounding the teeth are very sensitive and the teeth in it are made of the hardest substance enamel. With such an irony that the gum protects the tooth to be in its place, it is often the gum which combats the inflammation, swelling, or the infection. Whatever may be the reason for toothache, we hope our remedies suffice your needs.

Let whiskey move in your mouth for a minute. By the time the gum absorbs some quantity of alcohol, the pain will be temporarily relieved till you seek your doctor. This is due to the anesthetic effect of alcohol.
Use ice packs to numb the pain. You may place small cubes of ice at the affected area and let it work.

Take five grams of peppermint, add to a cup of water and bring to boil it. To this add ½ tbsp of salt and let the water become lukewarm. This liquid preparation if taken provides relief to not just tooth ache but also other common pains like headache.

One may also use dried leaves of peppermint. Just place some amount of these dried leaves on the tooth area of discomfort then spit it out after 15 minutes. Another interesting example for pain relief is cucumber slices. Keep these cucumber slices, especially refrigerated, on the aching tooth or the area of discomfort. The soothing effects of cold cucumber slices will definitely be helpful.

Prepare a homogenous paste of garlic and salt and apply to the ailing region. Even a drop of Iodine on the area is beneficial but it must never to swallow. Last but not the least is the majestic pain killer herb –Asafetida. Prepare a paste of 1/2tbsp of asafetida and a bit of lemon juice. Simple warm the mixture and apply using a cotton ball.
