Acute toothache - what to relieve?

What should you do if you can’t see a dentist?

A quick and effective way to alleviate acute tooth pain before seeing a doctor is to use medications, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and analgesics.

In emergencies, use medications that you have used before without side effects, but not for more than three days.

Should you see a dentist if the pain is temporary?

Even if the tooth pain disappears after taking medication and no longer bothers you, be sure to visit a clinic to prevent complications and determine the cause of the pain with professional equipment.

Unpleasant sensations do not occur without cause. Before visiting a dentist, avoid painkillers so that the doctor can see all the symptoms and prescribe the correct treatment.

How to prevent tooth pain?

• Regular brushing twice a day, using dental floss, and rinsing with antiseptic solutions can help prevent cavities.
• Professional cleaning, timely removal of tartar, and treatment of cavities.
• Don’t endure acute tooth pain!

Before providing first aid to yourself or others, it’s crucial to identify the potential cause of the pain. This can be difficult without specialized equipment, so it’s necessary to consult a doctor, even if the tooth no longer hurts.
