- Garlic has magical healing powers, no doubt. And the garlic clove radiates its healing powers in curing a toothache also. You just need to place a clove of garlic on the trouble causing tooth, and chew it slowly. Follow this technique every morning, your toothache would surely diminish.
- Onion. Surprised! Yes, this root, which you will easily find at your home, also is helpful in curing a sore tooth. Use onion for healing a toothache, just like we had discussed for garlic. Place a piece of raw onion on the affected tooth, and let it do the healing. (tip: To keep the teeth problems at bay, chew a piece of raw onion daily.)
- Another home remedy is using asafoetida. Take a pinch of asafoetida and soak it in lime juice. Now dip a clean cotton swab in this mixture and place the swab on the tooth. This will relieve the pain quickly.
- There is no dearth of vanilla extract in the house of vanilla flavor lovers. If you don't have one, get it. This is because, a dose of 3 to 4 drops of vanilla extract on the aching tooth cures the ache.
- Chewing a raw lime along with its peel also helps in curing a toothache.
- Another remedy to ease a toothache is using vinegar and bay berry. You need to prepare a paste of bay berry bark, and soak it in vinegar. Now apply this paste on the aching tooth for some time to relieve your tooth from the pain.
- Clove also has magical healing properties, and in most of the herbal toothpastes you would find clove as a chief ingredient. Place a clove in your mouth, near the aching tooth, to relieve the pain. A pinch of pepper mixed with clove oil is also beneficial in relieving toothaches.
- Wheat grass is a natural antibiotic, and chewing wheat grass helps in easing the pain from a sore tooth. You can also use the juice of wheat grass as a mouthwash, which would help in keeping all dental problems at bay.
- Chewing guava leaves or spinach leaves also gives fast relief from a toothache.
- If you don't have any of the above in your house, application of an ice pack on the cheeks would help to some extent.
