1. Advil. It works much better than bc powders or asprin or Tylenol on an achy tooth.
2. Hydrogen Peroxide. (or a mouthwash with it as an ingredient.) This stuff works miracles on a tooth ache. But it only works for about 30 mins per rinse. But if you are in agony it usually works just long enough for the pain killer to kick in. (if you rinse with strait peroxide DO NOT SWOLLOW IT. Really important. It says on the bottle that it's safe as an oral rinse but you should not drink it, that's bad lol)
3. Brush really well around the cavity every few hours. Just in case there is something stuck in there that could cause an infection. (yes this happened to me also.)
4. Forget the Oregel. It sucks!! Try Anbesol. You can find it in the same place as oregel and it works way better. It tastes nasty but when you have a tooth ache you usually don't care.
Hope this helps somebody!!
