3 Most Effective Home Remedies For Toothache
Sore teeth can be caused by a variety of things. Usually it is a cavity or exposed nerve of some sort that is causing the pain. These natural remedies are meant to deal with the pain until you can see a dentist. They are not meant to cure it. To help the pain, try these natural remedies.
You can get clove oil from the extract section of your local grocery store. Completely soak a cotton ball in clove oil and press to the tooth that is causing the pain. This will help numb the area, especially if there is an exposed nerve. It will dry rather fast, and you need to apply it often, but it will help kill the pain better than over the counter medication.
Garlic
You have to like garlic for this remedy. It’s recommended that you take a piece of garlic and remove the skin, put it in your mouth and chew on it slowly. Keep doing this every morning until you can go see a doctor. This should help keep it from getting worse while still relieving the pain. If you need to, you can do this more than once a day.
If you can’t handle the taste of garlic, lime is also something that you can chew on to help with a sore tooth. Take a lime and cut it into wedges. Chew on the lime next to the sore tooth. This will alleviate pain, but you may have to do it more often than you would with garlic, as it is much less potent. This is recommended 3-4 times a day, but at least it won’t make your breath smell nearly as bad.
