Should You Go to the ER or Dentist?
Intense mouth pain could leave you considering a visit to the emergency room. Unfortunately, the most doctors can do is provide relief through painkillers. We recommend seeing your dentist who will be able to perform dental procedures to solve the problem at its root. Contact us if you are experiencing extreme pain from a toothache.
When to seek treatment

At-Home Remedies
It’s unlikely you can banish a toothache entirely with at-home remedies, but it can help with temporary relief. Here’s some tips for managing toothache symptoms before getting in to see your dentist.
- Cleanse with a warm salt water rinse
- Use a diluted hydrogen peroxide mouthwash
- Try a cold compress on the affected area
- Dab a small amount of clove oil on the affected area
