However, if the patient's condition has become serious enough to develop pulpitis, he or she should go to a dental hospital for photo treatment as soon as possible to avoid delaying the condition.

The specific method of treating toothache with Sichuan pepper is to take 10 grams of Sichuan pepper, add appropriate amount of water, boil for about 5 minutes, add about one or two taels of white wine, after it is completely cool, filter out the Sichuan pepper, and then pour the white wine and pepper water into a clean glass bottle for later use. When you have a toothache, dip a clean cotton swab in this water and place it on the aching area. Bite down on it tightly and the pain will soon stop. If you want to make it simpler, you can put a few washed peppercorns on the painful area and chew them twice.

The expert finally reminded that Sichuan pepper can relieve toothache because it has local anesthetic and analgesic effects, so it can only be used as an analgesic for symptomatic treatment. After the pain is relieved, you still need to seek medical attention in time.

The harm of toothache is some chronic inflammation in the oral cavity, which cannot be completely eliminated for a long time. When the body's resistance decreases, the bacteria or other pathogenic factors hiding in it will run to other parts and organs of the body through various channels to continue to multiply, causing damage to other organs, and then affecting the health of the whole body.
