warm water and baking soda

to swish, not drink

Oil of clove, or cloves (between tooth and cheek)

Or pressure on the LI 4 (about an inch below where your thumb and forefinger meet) on the same side as the toothache.

chamomile tea also helps

Anbosol (spelling?) Worked like a charm when the kids were teething.

well the last time i put a warm compress on my face when i was in this condition. I ended up in the worse kind of pain and my jaw swelled up

like the size of a baseball and i was in tears

heat promotes swelling, cold takes it away. You should use heat to relax muscles, cold to reduce inflammation.

The dentist

you get well soon. Tooth ache is one of the worst things.. Poor girl.
