Title: My teeth
Post by: Del Boy on 21 October 2010, 13:54:13
What's good to get rid of severe tooth pain I'm polled up to the hills and this is seriously the worst pain I've ever had, my whole mouth hurts, the dentist is about as useful as a chocolate fire guard where can I go?

Another dentist? Do you know what the problem is?

In the meanwhile, dry a drop of clove oil and see if sipping on very cold salt water helps.

My missus went A&E because her toothache was so bad. they only gave her painkillers but they were strong and effective. Could try registering with another dentist after and get an emergency appointment? hope you feel better :y

a piece of cotton immersed in strong drinks like scotch.. place on the pain area and keep for some time..

but pain shows direct touch to nerves so you need dentist immediately..infection is also likely possible..  :-/

Should have added that targeting the troublesome area with a little on the end of a cotton bud is probably preferable to swigging it from the bottle. ;D

I had root canal surgery yesterday. The pain is quite pronounced today. I have tried a combination of Ibuprofen and Paracetomol (you can take them both together). It does take the edge off the pain.
You need to get to the root(excuse the pun) cause of the problem.
Good luck

Placing ice cubes against the affect area should sooth it and numb the area reducing the pain. :)

No dentist can get me in until next year, can't take more pills because I'm bound to overdose.

Nope not one place in Kent will book me in today, early tomorrow morning is the only time they can get me in, then they want me to pay £42 just to have a look. 'dangle berries' to it I'll rip the things out with the pliers

Is it a cavity or could it be an abscess?

When I had an abscess beneath my wisdom tooth, I was advised to swill warm salted water around my mouth. The logic is that the heat makes the abscess expand to the point that, like a volcano, the pus-filled interior is expelled... :y

I shan't go on, I'm feeling queasy. ;) ;D

Yes, depends. If it's a tooth problem cooling it can cause it to contract, relieving pressure on the nerve. So I'm told. I'm not a dentist, more's the pity, otherwise my garage might be on the PistonHeads thread. ::)

Agreed. And a further bill for £420 to end the pain. Money well spent IMHO. There's nothing worse than a troublesome tooth.

Bit of advice Del Boy....once you get on their books (provided they do NHS) stick with them and do the 6 monthly checkups. It will save you pain and money in the long run....I speak from experience. I won't go into details, other than I went 15 years avoiding dentists to my peril and expense. :y :y :y

Yes its grieving to know what they can charge privately, but once sorted, find a NHS dentist and DO stick with it.

11th November the next dentist said, sod it I'll stick with painful teeth even though it's killing me, I'll get some extra strong pills and shove them down me throat  >:(

You could almost certainly get a private appointment tomorrow morning, but it will cost you. Mrs Albs had an infected,impacted wisdom tooth a few months ago, absolute agony. Usual dentist was too scared to touch it. Went private - sedation + extraction = £325. :o :'(

I only have 7 left at the top and 10 at the bottom so I dont get as many problems as I used to. Having said that I have had a abscess/ growth/lump type thing beside one of my filled top teeth for over a year now. It gets inflamed and painful sometimes, but give it a week or 2 and it calms down again. ::) ;)

Del Boy, you'll have to try it and report back on success rates...

It it's anything like round here nobody will take on any NHS patients. Haven't been to an NHS dentist since I was a student. They all say they do NHS work, but aren't currently able to take on any new NHS patients. >:(

Just have to find a reasonable private dentist. The longer you leave it the worse it'll be though. :-/

I would advise caution around using Codeine based products for more than a week or two, I run a drug service and see people like housewives , builders etc who have got themselves into the sh*t surprisingly easily and are taking  60-100 Nurofen plus daily.

Find out where your nearest Dental teaching hospital is as they will have a drop in where the students get to practice on you, generally a rip out service but it will rid you of the problem!!

the time spent thinking about all these pills and potions plus the cost when you buy them and then when it doesn't work of gives you side effects you buy something else is total nonsense - get to the dentist - if you are in pain they will fit you in - just shout louder - if they do not see you they are in big trouble.

I just do not believe in rushing for pills for eveything

Yes, sound advice indeed.

Self medication is a bad idea.

Either dentist again (this time with loud moaning noises) or A&E or, if you have one near, a dental teaching hospital.  The latter has worked for me but Dundee Uni Dental School is relatively close at hand....

richie pro pluss aint a pain killer m8 and there aint any codinene or and other narcotic in it

there caffine pills if you were driking loads of coffey as well

you have had the jitters all right

but no diferent than drinking redbull non stop

one pro pluss pill is about the same amount of caffine as one cup of coffe m8
