Toothache pain can be extremely distracting and often becomes excruciating if not treated immediately.Tooth pain happens due to compromised enamel which is allowing material to enter directly into the pulp.

 
When you find difficulty in reaching an emergency dentist, try these quick home remedies for to sooth the pain:

Baking Soda

 

Take a cotton swab and moisten it with a bit of water, dip it in baking soda then apply. Or you can make a mouth rinse by mixing a spoonful of baking soda in a small glass of lukewarm water.

 

Oil of oregano and olive oil

 

Mix a few drops of oregano oil with a bit of olive oil, then saturate a cotton ball with mixture. You can replace the olive oil with lukewarm water.

 

Salt Water

Tea
