Home Remedies for Toothache Pain Relief


Toothaches can be incredibly painful, but you don't always need to rush to the dentist immediately. Fortunately, you can find a variety of home remedies using common household items to help ease the discomfort. Toothache pain often results from irritation, swelling, infection, or even an abscess near the tooth's nerve endings.

If you're fortunate enough to have never experienced a toothache, it's still wise to be prepared just in case. While a dental visit is essential for long-term care, these tried-and-true home remedies can offer immediate relief.
