Toothache?

[OzJavelin]

I cracked a tooth a few weeks ago and had a temporary crown fitted waiting for my proper one .. But I think I've damaged the temp one. I can see it has a hole in it and I have a toothache ( they removed an old filling to fit the temporary crown ).

Any suggestions on what to use to either fill the hole, or kill the toothache until tomorrow?

Rum, lots of it..................

I once got a numbing liquid from the chemist, tastes like death but works great!

Ouch

I dont know, I'm a mechanic who studdied accounting & managment so I'm not a dentist but man that sounds like it hurt

when the kids were teething we had this stuff called bonjella and I may have used it with some sucsess with a tooth ach becasue I hate dentists

Oil of cloves , see you chemist , or 5 glasses of your best wine

bonjella is the choice here works a treat on the kids

if you cant get it a good strong aspirin ( dispersed in water disprin max is a good one ) and as you drink it swirl it around the tooth that is hurting

works a treat for me

A few codines should fix you for a bit.

This is the only thing I had at home (we live about 35km from nearest town) so I used it .. helped enough to dull the pain .. I just stayed awake as long as I could and went to bed (actually slept OK). Hopefully will get to dentist today.
Thanks all .. I'll remember the suggestions for next time.

Mercyndol is what stopped an excruciating toothache that my ex had. Cost only a few dollars from the chemist.

Whip down to your nearest Bunnings store grab a bag of rapid set concrete mix take with water and harden the f...k up

No just kidding, not sure if Bonjela would be strong enough or not but if you have a chemist nearby try there, I used some stuff years back which I'm pretty sure had cloves and other ingredients in it. As others have suggested cloves is very good for numbing tooth pain. I would also try to avoid hot and cold drinks as these can aggravate as well, hope you get it sorted soon

Hopefully this doesn't happen

Oil of cloves is what's in Bonjella -it's just a weak recipe for the kids teething

[devilcv8]

A nice glass of ice water will numb it right up, followed by a bowl of ice cream.

Everything gives you cancer these days....

Not directly related to the thread.

I find it really interesting that many people who espouse the risk of cancer-causing 'toxins' and divulge in 'therapeutic' measures to counteract these, also smoke and drink without a second thought.

oralese works well, used on wisdom teeth until i could get to the jaw breaker. available at all chemists and a healthy dose of Dolased to get you through the night.

Leave the oil of cloves at the chemist, i've used it and it tastes like pus and doesn't workas good as other stuff. I've had heaps of teeth problems over a long period. The best drops to get is nyal(spelling) tooth ache drops and a pain killer that works is tramal. I was on the waiting list for 2 years to get my 3 remaining wisdom teeth and another surgicly removed because of were my nerves are and put up with a hell of alot of pain. But made it through with the 2 mentioned above.

You can buy crown and filling repairs from the supermarket, they work. Orherwise, get yoyur hands on panedine forte, chuck a couple down and it's good night for you...
