HELP!!! I have a horrible Toothache?!
Question: HELP!!! I have a horrible Toothache?
I had a temporary crown put on a week ago and my tooth has not stopped aching!! Ibuprophen is not working (I see the dentist tomorrow) is there anything else I can do now for the pain?
Answers:
How many mg's of Ibuprofren did you take? It's safe to take up to 800mg at once. Unfortunately, there really isn't much to do but wait until tomorrow. You can try holding an ice or heat pack on your face in the area of the tooth, but I don't know how well that will work.
warm water can help. Also any pain medication that is recommended to you.
warm compress's with pressure. That should extract the pain asap.
