What is the effective way to treat toothache?

Toothache is a symptom that can be caused by many diseases. Many people want to know how to treat toothache. When you have a toothache and there is no medication to relieve it, you can also choose some folk remedies to relieve the pain. You can also hold peppercorns when you have severe toothache.

1. Rinse your mouth. Take a mouthful of water (similar to body temperature) and rinse your mouth vigorously. If the toothache is caused by food scraps stuck between teeth, rinsing your mouth to remove the scraps can solve the toothache. If rinsing your mouth doesn't work, you can use dental floss. But be careful not to injure your gums.

2. Anesthesia and pain relief. Taking a sip of slightly stronger liquor can numb the teeth and gums and achieve a pain-relieving effect.

3. Contains aloe vera. Cut a small piece of aloe vera, peel off the skin, and hold the pulp containing sticky liquid in the painful area. It will relieve itself in 2-4 hours. Gargle with salt water: After each meal and before going to bed, add 1 teaspoon of salt to about 230ml of warm water (close to body temperature) and gargle with this solution. Do not swallow.

4. Massage your hands. This method can relieve 50% of the pain. Rub an ice cube into the V-shaped area between the thumb and index finger bones. Gently apply ice to the area for 5 to 7 minutes. A Canadian researcher found that 60-90% of people who used this method found relief from toothache. His research showed that this friction method can interfere with the transmission of toothache nerve impulses.

5. Apply ice. Just like treating a bruise, applying ice to the cheek closest to the toothache can help relieve the pain. Apply for 15 minutes each time, at least 3-4 times a day.

6. Take antibiotics. For example, amoxicillin, take one pill every 6-8 hours.

7. Use Yunnan Baiyao. If you happen to have Yunnan Baiyao at home, take out a little and add water to make it into a paste, then apply it to the toothache. Effectiveness can be seen within ten minutes.
