If you cant make the dentist get yourself down to the pharmacy and buy some clove oil....tasts shocking but god it works wonders :thumbsup: If you cant get the oil, chew on the head of a clove or, bit more tricky but still works.

Whoops just seen you're in Southampton, dentist wouldn't be happy if you called now....Nearly Nurse suggested cloves, didn't that work well in Marathon Man?

I offer you my sympathy...:(

After my first week in Timaru I had to have root canal treatment that spanned over 3 weeks. Not only was it painful, it cost nearly $750!!!:mad:

A local anasthetic throat spray, sprayed on to the tooth, may offer some small relief also. And the remedy for all ills known to man - a hot water bottle.

Poor you - remedies in this thread seem good and fingers crossed it gets well.

Hope you don't need treatment as dentists in New Zealand seem to earn more than Premiership footballers.:curse: ($1200 for two wisdom teeth removed a good clean).
