Clove Oil

Clove oil is renowned for its numbing and antimicrobial properties, making it an excellent choice for toothache relief. It contains eugenol, a natural anesthetic that not only numbs the area but also helps reduce inflammation and fight infection.

How to Use:

  • Dip a cotton ball in clove oil.
  • Apply it directly to the affected tooth and surrounding gums.
  • Allow it to sit for about 20 minutes, then rinse your mouth with warm water.

Alternatively, you can chew on a whole clove and let its oil slowly seep into the affected area.

Salt Water Rinse

A saltwater rinse is one of the easiest and most effective remedies for a toothache. Salt helps to clean the area around the tooth and draw out some of the infection that may be causing the pain.

How to Use:

  • Mix one teaspoon of salt into a glass of warm water.
  • Swish the solution around in your mouth for about 30 seconds.
  • Spit it out and repeat as necessary.

This method helps to relieve the pain and reduce swelling.

Garlic

Garlic has been used for medicinal purposes for thousands of years. It has antibiotic properties and can offer pain relief. Allicin, a compound found in garlic, has potent antimicrobial properties.

How to Use:

  • Crush a clove of garlic to release its juice.
  • Apply the crushed garlic and its juice to the affected tooth.
  • You can also chew on a clove of garlic for relief.

Do this a couple of times a day to alleviate pain and kill harmful bacteria.

Onion

Onions have both antibacterial and antimicrobial properties and can provide relief from tooth pain. They can help kill germs that may be causing the infection.

How to Use:

  • Cut a piece of onion and place it in your mouth, near the infected tooth.
  • Bite down on it occasionally to release its juice.

The antibacterial properties of the onion will get to work immediately, providing you with some relief.

Ginger-Cayenne Paste

Both ginger and cayenne are well-known for their pain-relieving properties. When combined, they form a potent paste that can alleviate toothache effectively.

How to Use:

  • Mix equal parts of ginger and cayenne with enough water to make a paste.
  • Roll a small piece of cotton into the paste.
  • Place the cotton ball on your painful tooth, avoiding your gums and tongue.

Let it sit until the pain subsides or as long as you can tolerate it. This combination works by desensitizing the local area and reducing inflammation.

Peppermint Tea Bags

Peppermint tea not only has soothing properties but also a pleasant taste, making it a popular choice for easing toothache. The menthol content in peppermint acts as a natural analgesic.

How to Use:

  • Boil a peppermint tea bag in water and let it cool down until it’s warm.
  • Place the tea bag on the affected tooth for 20 minutes.

You can also use the cooled tea as a mouth rinse. This method helps numb the area and offers pain relief.

Hydrogen Peroxide Rinse

Hydrogen peroxide is a powerful antiseptic and can help alleviate the pain and discomfort of a toothache. It can also reduce plaque and heal bleeding gums.

How to Use:

  • Mix equal parts of 3% hydrogen peroxide and water.
  • Swish the solution in your mouth for 30 seconds, then spit it out.

Make sure not to swallow the solution. This rinse can help to disinfect your mouth and ease the pain.
