Coping with a Toothache
A toothache can be debilitating. Rather than become miserable, there are ways to ease the pain.
Key takeaways:
- Stay away from cold water; instead use warm water to gently rinse the mouth.
- Floss teeth gently and regularly to get rid of food particles that may be stuck between teeth.
- If the pain is unbearable or persists, visit a dentist for a checkup and appropriate treatment.
- Never place aspirin on gums or teeth that hurt, as it could cause burns on gum tissue.
