help! I have a toothache UPDATE

[tdgill]

I bet that a gargle of warm water and epsom salts would help draw out swelling and help to drain too....

I have been using the salt water around every 3-4 hours nothing yet. part of the tooth broke off earlier . I just wish it would quit hurting and throbing

Did you check out local dental schools??

Sometimes if you call them they will either have a student do the work or hook you up with some one.

we don't have one here the nearest one is 150 mile away and I have to work tomorrow. I take care of an 89 year old man that is bedfast and cannot get up to do anything for himself. I bath him change his diaper feed him just do everything for him

well I tired of it hurting and I mashed on my gum a little bit under the tooth and guess what it erupted! and oh man was it nasty. tasting and smelling. I washed my mouth out with peroxide and then after that I used listerine that stuff will set you on fire, it is hard to do for 30 seconds. I am still gonna go get some different antibiotics . my boss called and I don't have to work tomorrow after all. they put the elderly man I take care of in the hospital this afternoon. so I will be trying to go to dentist or dr. tomorrow.
