  • No. You have to come to the dentist to see if the nerve is touch and to stop the pain.

  • Hi,

    Unfortunately tooth pain almost never goes away by simply taking a medication. Unlike a bruise on your leg or a cut on a finger, a tooth pain is caused by an issue that has to be eliminated by a health professional. Medication only temporarily solves the issue.
    To be sure that the pain goes away and the problem doesn't amplify, take an appointment with a dentist as soon as possible so that they can identify the source of the problem and solve it.
    Meanwhile, you can always try a combination of Dafalgan 1g and Ibuprofen 400mg, alternating between the two every 4-6 hours. Don't go over 3 times a day for each!

  • Hello! You need to make an appointment to a dentist. A medication can’t help you for the moment.

  • Hello, I'm sorry to hear about your severe tooth pain. In situations like this, it's crucial to seek urgent dental care to alleviate your discomfort. Only a dentist can assess the necessity for a prescription for stronger medication or painkillers. I strongly recommend scheduling an appointment with a dentist as soon as possible to address your pain and explore the appropriate treatment options.

  • Hello, you probably have an infection, so you need to see a dentist asap, because taking painkillers won't solve the problem (only the pain).

  • Hello, you have to open the tooth properly and extract the nerve, that is the only way to be better.
