How Do You Relieve Toothaches Using Home Remedies?
Having a toothache can be one of the most painful things. It can hurt to eat, drink and sometimes even talk. Of course you can go to the dentist when you get a toothache or you can go the easy and cheap route and relieve the toothache with home remedies. Take a mouthful of lukewarm water and rinse your mouth with it. Rinse as long and as much as you can because if the toothache is caused by food that is trapped in your tooth, the water should be able to get it out. Use your dental floss and floss your teeth gently. If rinsing your mouth out with the water doesn’t work and if it is caused by trapped food like popcorn, flossing gently in between the teeth will get the food out and relieve your toothache. Take a shot of whiskey and hold it in your mouth near the tooth that hurts. By holding it on the painful tooth the alcohol will numb it and relieve the toothache. Hold it in your mouth for several seconds to minutes, as long as you can stand it, and spit out the rest. Measure one teaspoo
