Does anyone know any good home remedies for a toothache since the dentist is not open right now?

Answers:
I would go to a health food store and get some Tea Tree Oil... it works wonders.. just use a couple drops on your toothbrush as you brush your teeth. It will help to bring down any infection much faster than any antibiotics would. Then you should be able to get the dental work done faster. Also packing the tooth with some cloves my hurt like crazy, but it works to help reduce the pain in the end. Still.. go with the tea tree oil... I swear by it.
it may sound funny but where i come from we put a clove in the hole to help stop the pain till we can get to the dentist.
You could buy some morphine on the street?
Just kidding I heard the clove works as well. Maybe you could buyt that on the street and "just happen" to find some morphine.
this is going to sound bad... but hard alcohol helps when you have a toothache. jack daniels i recommend, also vodka. but don't overdo it. you might get hammered and pass out. then you'll wake up with a hangover and you might ask yahoo! questions with " how do you get rid of a hangover" lol
Take 4 advils every 4 hours.
My Mom used to put whiskey on our gums if we had a toothache, and I had to use foul-tasting clove oil in my tooth sockets when I had wisdom teeth removed, so I know that works too. Whiskey DEFINITELY tastes better!
Do NOT put an aspirin on the tooth. People told me to do that, and that practice will eat away your gum tissue...definitely ill-advised.
Without going the alcoholic route... :)
Try warm salt water - flush out your mouth - clean the germs out with it. And for the pain - ambisol - works for teeth and gums. Good luck - and hope the pain goes away.
Warm, salty water. Keep it flowing back and forth over the affected tooth. Spit it out when it cools, then take another swig and repeat - constantly.
The simplest way for me was to use drinking alcohol, gargling the tooth, 2-3 times, with small portions, so that not to burn the gums.
Take 4 Ibuprofen ever 4 hours.It help me when I had a cracked wisdom tooth and then had 3 extracted then had two dry sockets for about 2 weeks.It also help me when I had 3 back surgeries on my lower disc.This help me when nothing else would.
Take some ibuprofen, and ice your mouth or jaw, if it helps.
go to walmart look for "Ambisol" or "Baby OrajeI" probably didn't spell it right but look in the baby section. Its used when babies are teething. It helps to numb your tissue.
