Does anyone have any homemade toothache remedies? I get a toothache with the same tooth all of the time. It is from clenching my teeth. I know I need a mouth guard, but they are so expensive to get from the dentist and I chew up the ones that football players use. I just need something to ease the ache once it starts. HELP!

You need to see a dentist. Attempting a homemade toothache remedy may damage your tooth.

I know there isn't anything the dentist can do for me besides make a mouth guard and I can't afford one, so I had to pass on that option. I've already seen him about it. Thank you for your concern, that is very kind of you.

Has Orajel ever helped you? Also, clove oil. I never did it, but my grandma did. It burns for a bit, and then becomes numb. I just looked it up to make sure that was a real thing, and people say it is.

Orajel helps a little bit for a very short amount of time. I've never heard about olive oil. I will look that up and see what the procedure is. Thank you so much!

I hope that you can find a way to ease the pain. Maybe drinking something warm might help some.

If you get clove oil in your city, its very good for tooth ache. Dab clove oil in a cotton and apply it tooth the aching tooth.
