I've got toothache! ARRGGHHHH!!!

[candidrachel]

Why does this always happen on a Sunday?? Its totally draining me. I really hope I can see the dentist before Good Friday. Heck. I had a look at my teeth and there's no decay it just really hurts when I bite and it throbs permenantely.1 Just sent hubby off to get me some anti-inflammetry tablets - the strongest!

I feel for you! My experience, an old filling ALWAYS falls out on the Friday night before a long week end!

Boo! Good luck. I always preferred Ibuprofin for tooth pain (and believe me, I've gone through lots of dental fun too!)

Ouch! Hope you feel better. Like I say to my husband when he gets a toothache...you could always whack yourself in the kneecap with a hammer to take your mind off your toothache.

LOL, sorry about that....I really do hope you feel better. Ibuprofen and lots of it!!!

Yeouch! Hope you get in by the end of the week! Have to say im really lucky and can always get in next day with my dentist in an emergency. Hope you're as fortunate.

Sending you some extra strong painkilling things

bring your camera to the dentist! try to get a shot of the Dentist working on your pearly whites!

Seriously though, tooth aches are NO fun. Hope it gets fixed soon!

[WooD]

I had a tooth ache like that a couple years ago. No decay, but still hurt like hell if it touched another tooth. Only thing I could figure was something got below the gum line somehow while eating.

I got out the floss, and as bad as it hurt....talking GREAT MULTITUDES, I ran it as far down as I could get it. Not sure if there was anything there, but it stopped hurting after that.

Orajel works pretty good.

I'm so tempted to raid the tool kit and rip the damn thing out with a pair of plyers I've been taking painkillers galore and its not helping.

I'll be knocking on the dentist's door first thing in the morning and DEMAND to be seen

I've just have a nice mug of warm milk and honey to try and relax me.

Thanks for your words of sympathy and support it means alot

I hope itll get better.ive never had any experience like that but i hope i wont have to experience it. But from what ive heard, honey contains some kind of antibiotic good for toothache too.

Unfortunately, it also contains sugar. If the toothache is due to a cavity, then that will only make it worse -- and hurt like a ***** too when you eat it!
