Question:

What is a good home remedy for a bad toothache?


Answers:

As a member of the dental profession, I would have to tell you to go to your dentist. You could have an infection that can only get worse and lead to the loss of one or more teeth and bone structure. You could have a cavity that could also only get worse as well. There are no home remedies to cure these problems. Do take a pain medication to help with symptoms, if there is inflammation use ibuprophin. You can also use a cold pack. I would not suggest anything warm in case of infection, it could make it worse. The clove oil mentioned in other answers helps because it is soothing to the pulp of the tooth. But I have to stress go to a dentist. I dont know the extent of your problem but if it is serious it will save you time and money to fix the problem as soon as possible.
