Toothache
Has anyone got any magic cures for toothache? One of my wisdom teeth is coming through and is really painful - all up my face, not just in my mouth. I've been taking painkillers and bonjella but nothing is working. And after a third night with very little sleep (I was awake between 2.30 and 6am last night) I'm at the end of my tether. Help!
Thanks

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I went to dentist last week for the exact same problem. My tooth is in the right place, so it is not pushing the other teeth, but the reason it hurt was that "dirt" could get under the gum over the tooth. She disinfected it, showed my how to brush that stupid tooth and told me to use mouthwash. It helped, even the headache disappeared!?! My mum told me to chew licorice root and my mother-in-law told me to drip whiskey on it. Don't know if any of those will help, but if you just drink the whiskey it is bound to help :-)
