is there a way to stop my toothache?

Question:

pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee it hurts

Answers:
Do NOT hold aspirin in your mouth! This can burn the tissue and cause more pain than you are already in. If it is an intense, throbbing type pain, you need to get to a dentist. If money is an issue, you may want to look into dental schools in your area. The school I went to had an emergency clinic just for things like this. It may take longer, but the cost is usually much less. Warm salt water rinses may help, depending on the cause, but don't be over-agressive in brushing or flossing the area because that can irritate things and make it worse. I hope you feel better soon!

Other Answers:
try swishing your mouth with warm saltwater or listerine.

Hold an aspirin on the tooth that is hurting. Oil of glove will also help but few people have this anymore. if its throbbing and keeping you awake @ night then you NEED to go to the dentist for some antibiotics and pain medication. then return to have it treated or extracted. Now if $$$$ is the issue @ this time then make sure you sleep with two pillows under your head to keep it elevatedso that the blood is not rushing to your head creating more pressure. and find a way to get antibiotics. Sometimes if I have antibiotics from a previous Dr's visit I check w/ thepharmacy if they are still good and take them 1 every 6 hrs. Now remember the antibiotic is really the one thats going to take the pain away cause its the one reducing the infection. Feel better

If it hurts then something is wrong in there so go to the doctor because tooth pain is not going to go away like that. it will for a after a while but it comes back. trust me. U have to go to a doctor whether now or later so just go.

if u cant make it soon then chew on something cold. DO NOT, whatever you do, HOLD AN ASPIRIN ON YOUR TISSUE. OUCH! I agree with c8lin. this will cause an aspirin burn, and your toothache will probably be secondary to that pain.
Clove oil can help. it is a natural obtundant (meaning it has pain relieving qualities). If you don't have clove oil, try a whole clove. Also, take what you would take for a headache (alleve, ib, etc.)
Most importantly, call a dentist and make an appointment. If your tooth is hurting, it is hurting for a reason. The above suggestions won't make it go away. it'll just reduce the pain until you can find out what is causing it and fix the problem.
Good luck.
