In fact, many people don\u2019t even notice they have them until it is time to go to bed, and trying to fall asleep with one can be quite an ordeal. Dentist\u2019s offices are not typically 24-hour businesses, so you\u2019ll probably have to wait until morning to make your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drmurrayfairfaxva.com\/emergency-dentistry.html\">emergency dental appointment<\/a>. Until then, here are some at-home toothache remedies that will hopefully get you through the night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Causes Toothaches?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, a toothache is caused by a bit of food wedged between the teeth or into the gums, leading to pain and irritation. Other times, it is caused by a cavity that has breached a tooth\u2019s enamel and dentin and reached the pulp underneath. This bacterial infection can lead to severe, throbbing pain. Bacteria in the pulp also have access to blood vessels that can allow them to infect other parts of the body if the toothache goes untreated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can I Get to Sleep With a Toothache?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While it might not be easy, it is possible to get some good rest when you have a toothache. Here are a few tricks for reducing toothache pain at home:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sleep with your head in an elevated position<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The nerves in the infected pulp of your tooth will be very sensitive, and more intense blood flow can stress them further. Sleeping with your head in an elevated position (try using pillows or cushions) can reduce the blood flow in your head, putting less pressure on your troubled nerve endings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practice good oral hygiene before bed<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A comprehensive round of dental care before bed can help remove stuck food or debris that might be contributing to the pain. Brush for two minutes with fluoride toothpaste and floss thoroughly before rinsing with antibacterial mouthwash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cotton and clove oil<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An old home remedy for toothache is soaking a cotton ball in clove oil and holding it on top of the pained tooth. This is an all-natural and effective method for short-term relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hot salt water<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Thoroughly swishing hot salt water through your mouth can remove food debris and help clean wounds and infection sites that might be contributing to the pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Over-the-counter pain relievers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find short-term relief in common pain medication at the local pharmacy. These can treat discomfort and inflammation, but consult with your pharmacist before using anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using an ice pack or cold compress<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This first-aid treatment for sports injuries works just as well on your mouth. Applying an ice pack or cold compress to the cheek on the side of the afflicted tooth can dull the pain and reduce inflammation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While these at-home treatments can provide temporary relief from a toothache, you should make an emergency dentist appointment in the morning for a long-term solution. In the meantime, these remedies will hopefully let you get some sleep so you can deal with the problem efficiently the next day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>MJM Family &amp; Cosmetic Dentistry safeguards dental health and beautiful smiles for the community of Fairfax, VA.
