How to quickly relieve wisdom tooth pain

Many people pay more attention to their wisdom teeth, but wisdom teeth are also easily affected by toothache, mainly because there are many causes of toothache, such as periodontitis and dental neuralgia. However, when it comes to wisdom tooth pain, we can use cold water or warm salt water to quickly relieve it, but I also need us to eat less spicy food, rinse our mouths and brush our teeth more often to relieve it.

1. Toothache caused by dental caries (commonly known as tooth decay)

When the disease is serious, you will feel toothache, especially when eating hard food or encountering sweet, sour, cold or hot food, the pain will be aggravated. Middle-aged and elderly people may also experience pain due to tooth heel atrophy and exposed tooth roots. You can peel fresh garlic, mash it into a paste, and then fill it into the cavity of the caries; you can also take an appropriate amount of Yunnan Baiyao, mix it into a paste with warm water, and fill it into the cavity of the caries, or apply it to the periodontal and interdental areas; you can also apply Ten Drops of Water or Fengyoujing to the affected area, or continuously brush your teeth with acid-resistant toothpaste, etc., which will quickly relieve the pain and then make it disappear. For those with sensitive teeth and sore teeth, you can grind 2-3 pieces of baking soda, dissolve them in 1 cup of cold boiled water, and rinse your mouth 3 times a day. You can also peel garlic and soak it in rice wine and then apply it to your teeth. Both are effective.

2. Toothache caused by periodontitis

This is another cause of toothache, which manifests as redness, swelling, distending pain in the teeth, loosening and displacement of teeth, and even periodontal bleeding and pus, accompanied by bad breath and other symptoms. Research in recent years has found that it is closely related to anaerobic bacterial infection. You can take metronidazole (also known as metronidazole), 2 tablets (200 mg each), 3 times a day, and avoid alcohol. You can also take Compound Xinnuo (5MzC0), 2 tablets each time (500 grams each tablet), twice a day. Double the dose for the first time, but avoid using it if you exceed the limit.

3. Dental neuralgia

When caries invades the dental pulp, it is caused by bacterial infection. It manifests as spontaneous, paroxysmal severe pain, which can occur without any stimulation. It is more likely to occur at night, the pain is more severe than during the day, making it impossible to sleep and extremely painful. The reason is that after lying in bed, the pressure in the pulp cavity increases. In addition, when the pulp becomes purulent, a certain amount of gas will be produced, which will expand due to fever and cause severe pain. Cold compresses can relieve the pain, and surgical treatment is usually used. However, in emergency pain relief, you can use a cotton ball to pick up 75% alcohol and apply it to the toothache for 2 minutes, and then press the alcohol cotton ball on the painful area. Take a piece of ginger and hold it in the painful area. You can also use a little cold oil wrapped in cotton wool and put it in the decayed tooth, which can be effective.

4. Toothache caused by wisdom teeth

Peri-gingival inflammation is common. In addition to severe toothache, patients also have radiating ear pain, difficulty swallowing, difficulty opening the mouth or local swelling of the gums, and even swelling and fever in the cheeks. You can take erythromycin, cefadroxil and other treatments. At the same time, rinse your mouth with a 1:5 potassium permanganate solution, and then apply iodine glycerin to the painful area. Apply cold compress locally to relieve pain.

Patients with a history of toothache can use the above-mentioned drugs for emergency relief when going out or doing business, but it is only a stopgap measure after all, and they should still go for preventive treatment afterwards.
