    I ha 2 teeth pulled on thursday and I have one more to go. My mouth is sore but getting better. Nothing worse than and infection involving your teeth or mouth. Red cross is so nasty but works so well.

    Good luck.

    It must be the week for teeth. I had extensive work done on a back molar and then had a bridge put in. That back tooth that I spent soooo much money on is now infected again (after a root canal already) so now I have to see an endodontist and have it retreated or basically root canal through the bridge. I am also on antibiotics but they aren't helping much yet and its day 3. I don't get it worked on until July 7th!

    I tell you, a toothache can hurt like a mo-fo. Like a birth pain in your mouth.

    This has worked for me....


    1 tablespoon Baking soda
    1 tablespoon unrefined sea salt
    1 cup warm water
    1/4 antiseptic mouthwash


    Take baking soda and sea salt mix with cup of warm water. Then rinse mouth by swishing it around, use whole cup. Afterwards use the mouthwash swishing it around.

    It really has worked for me and a few friends. Hope this helps.

    omg! i am in so much pain right now. i feel like i have been hit by a bus. they tried doing the root canal yesterday, and only could get half way done. the antibiotics worked some, but the infection was still there, so they decided to drain it (i know gross). all they dig after drilling was plug it up and tell me to come back thurs.

    Have you tried holding warm salt water in your mouth for a minute or so? It can really make a difference with some dental pain.

    Hope you feel better real soon!

I will go ahead and tell you that it tastes nasty and will actually hurt worse for a couple of seconds after you use it. But if you can make it through that couple of seconds it will be so worth it. Depending on how intense the pain is it may come back sooner than it should. I have used this before with toothaches as well as with a dry socket, and it was the best thing I have found.
    I had to go to the emergency room years ago because of this stuff. I got so sick from it. I can eat ham with cloves, so I'm not sure why I got sick from it. But try the salt water first. You will be surprised at how well it works.
    Nothing worse then a toothache!
