Wisdom Tooth/Teeth

[iFrankie]

Ok i have a wisdom tooth breaking through my gum its fully showing and its still growing as i can tell from the pain, does anyone know any home remedies that will soothe the pain?, i had some spicy food before and OUCH, it was sore.

Thanks.

I've found Clove oil to be a bit hit and miss (though people always recommend it).
Ibuprofen on the other hand, although not a home remedy, definitely works well for tooth pain.
The generic (unbranded) tablets are also pretty cheap.

No coffee, no chocolate, no strong spicy foods, do not smoke, keep the tooth very clean and a little salty water helps avoid infection. Try to avoid the long term use of pain killers. If it is really painful some of the gels offered may help but not irritating it in the first place is best. If in persistent pain SEE YOUR DENTIST to make sure the tooth is growing in the right direction and is not impacting on places it should not touch.
Best of luck with it.
