How do you stop a tooth from hurting? Nerve is exposed.?


Question:
I have this nagging tooth ache, it has a nerve exposed, a Dentist is not an option right now, so how do I stop it from hurting?

Answers:
try an application of KANK-A, it is a topical solution made with bezocaine. it numbs the pain. dry mouth with a towel, then apply to affected area, it leaves a thin coating to protect from bacteria..

Other Answers:
you can get temporary fillings from most drug stores. when you get it you dry your mouth out take the numbing oil and put it in the whole in the tooth. then you take the temporary filler which is just like the one the deintists use and press it into the whole. It will get you threw the night or the weekend if you need to.

Unfortunately, you are going to be battling the pain until you're able to see a dentist. The best thing over-the-counter for a toothache is taking 800mg of Ibuprophen, which is prescription strength.
