Huge Toothache

[Boon5615]

I need some advice.
I have not slept during the night due to the most excruciating toothache.
I cannot go to a dentist as my medical aid does not pay for it and I cannot afford it.
Do any of you know of a home remedy I can try?

you can try clove oil to dull the pain...but you need to have the tooth treated.  it is likely the pain you feel is infection...not muscular. I am not sure where you live, but there are many low income clinics. call your county or a hospital.  they most likely can refer you.

Yes you do need to get that taken care of asap in my last pregnancy I got a bad tooth ache and it caused me to go into labor thank god I was 37 weeks and the baby was fine...tooth aches are killer good luck!!

It fewls like the muscle beneath the teeth on my righthandside jaw. Almost as if it is pinching somewhere.

Tooth aches are the worst and I honestly would suggest you make effort to go to the dentist some doctors may give you a low income payment plan you might want to look into it.. but I have heard from my grandma in the past that if you put Warm Clove oil or if you can't find clove oil then put warm water and a couple of cloVes just to sit in your mouth for about 15 minutes 3 times a day.. when you're done Spit the water or oil out. I hope this helps or I hope somebody gives you a solution because I know toothaches are horrible :(
