Natural Cures for Toothache – Spices
Clove oil manages to soothe toothache (it contains eugenol, a chemical that works as a local anesthetic). Put a little clove oil directly on the problem tooth and you will feel the effect immediately. The same anesthetic effect can be obtained from whole cloves. Put a few cloves in your mouth, let them soak a little until they soften, squeeze a little between the painless molars to release the oils from them and then keep them on the painful tooth for a maximum of 30 minutes. If you don’t have cloves at hand, you can make a ginger powder paste with hot peppers. Mix the ingredients, add a few drops of water to form a paste and apply only on the painful tooth, as it can irritate the gums.
Natural Cures for Toothache – Ice
Put an ice cube in a plastic bag, wrap the bag with a thin cloth and hold it for 15 minutes on the painful tooth to anesthetize the nerves.
Natural Cures for Toothache – Acupressure
Using your thumb, press the point on the back of your left hand where your thumb and forefinger meet. Apply pressure to this
place for two minutes and thus help trigger the release of endorphins, the so-called “pleasure hormones” in the brain, which will relieve the sensation of pain, according to www.csid.ro.
