There is no person who does not know what a toothache is. And there is no person who would never treat teeth at the dentist. Toothache (painkillers must be selected very carefully) will leave you forever in only one case - you will go to the dentist and let him deal with your bad tooth. The painkillers mentioned above will help relieve pain only temporarily. As, however, and the mass of the methods recommended by traditional medicine, bring relief only for a short time. If you have a sudden toothache, you can try to replace the pain medication with a soda solution with a drop of iodine. Such a warm rinse for the oral cavity will bring noticeable relief. Take a moment to get to the nearest dental office.
Pain in its manifestations is different, it all depends on the cause of its occurrence. If the pain appears when cold or warm food gets on the tooth and pretty quickly the discomfort disappears, then, as stated in a long-standing advertisement, you have come to tooth decay, and tooth enamel may be erased or your teeth suffer from hypersensitivity.
A pulsating, jerking toothache (anesthetic will most likely have to be used) indicates apical periodontitis. Often these sensations are accompanied by flux. Here it is not worth resorting to traditional medicine - it is useless. Another type of toothache - paroxysmal - occurs with pulpitis. Attacks can be short, but can last long enough, while there must be a moment when the pain subsides. If this process is started and a specialist is not consulted in time, the tooth may die.
Anesthetic for teeth recommended by most dentists is ibuprofen. This drug, which has an excellent anti-inflammatory effect, can be freely purchased at your local pharmacy. It is taken four times a day at 400 mg. But analgin and aspirin, which are often recommended to be applied to a diseased tooth, are not effective. Moreover, if a piece of the first drug gets on the tooth, then you risk tooth enamel, it can collapse. And when the second gets on the gum mucosa, a burn in the oral cavity is possible.
In the list of traditional medicine, the most common can be attributed to alcohol tincture of calendula. If you moisten a piece of cotton wool with a solution and attach it to a diseased tooth, you can forget about the pain for a fairly long time. A strong pain reliever for toothache is half a clove of garlic. If you gently rub the gum, the diseased tooth will calm down for a while. The root of calamus marsh (alcoholic infusion) can cope with toothache. For a hundred grams of water, you need a tablespoon of infusion, mix well and rinse your mouth. But you need to understand that no matter what path you take, medicament or folk, you still have to go to the dentist, and the faster you do this, the faster you will forget about toothache. Whatever the toothache, pain medication is just a short-term relief. Solving the problem in the office of a specialist.
In order for a sudden toothache not to take you by surprise, make it a rule to visit the dentist once every six months. This, of course, is a theory, since most of us come to this specialist only when we can’t tolerate it. Yes, and the prices for the services of a good specialist are biting today, but your costs will increase at times if you drag out on a visit and you have to seriously treat or prosthetize your teeth. The price of such services will hit the wallet much more tangibly. And how to evaluate the pain and lost time for prosthetics, for example? The choice is yours.
