Oral Medications, Pain Relief

Ache of the tooth, more commonly known as a toothache, is clinically labeled either odontalgia or odontalgy. The intense discomfort associated with such affected tooth, is in the aching pain that involves the tooth or areas around it. Sources that contribute to the aching tooth are developed due to problems concerning the tooth or jaw. To identify the cause, in determining the point from which is fueling the pain, so that an appropriate home remedy for toothache can be ascertained, detection, as to the problem, must be conducted. General maladies can be among such ailments as a cavity, disease of the gum, presentation of wisdom teeth, a crack in the tooth, disease of the jaw or a root of the tooth that has become exposed.

Many people suffering with toothache, it can mean difficulty with eating, sleeping, talking or even just getting through the day. The pain can be excruciating and it can be the only thing you can think of day and night. Toothaches can disrupt your daily routines, no matter how mild they are. Forcing yourself to tolerate an aching tooth while working at the office or listening to a lecture in school will do you no good. Toothaches are distracting, especially if they're severe. You can choose from the Oral Medications for tooth pain relief if you aren't anywhere near a dental care professional when toothache strikes.

Causes toothaches Tooth or gum pain happens for many different reasons. These include:

Tooth decay - The demineralization, or loss of essential minerals, in tooth enamel causes your teeth to decay. Acidic substances, such as the substances that develop when bits of food or sugar stuck between your teeth start to rot, cause demineralization. Tooth decay often leads to the development of cavities. You will start feeling pain when the cavity starts penetrating your tooth's dental tubules, where its nerves are.

Periodontitis - These are diseases affecting your gums. They involve the loss of alveolar bone mass. The alveolar bone is where your tooth sockets are. Your teeth could loosen or even fall out completely without proper support from your alveolar bone. There are seven different categories for these diseases based on their severity. People suffering from periodontitis often take tooth pain relief medication, such as Biotene, to alleviate pain caused by periodontal infections or inflammations.

Pulpitis - This is a condition involving the swelling of dental pulp. Dental pulp is the inner part of your teeth, composed of living tissue and cells. The pain caused by pulpitis is distinct because it's prolonged and throbbing. Pulpitis may be a result of tooth or gum disease, physical trauma to the jaw, or tooth decay.

Tooth Pain Relief Methods
When you feel tooth pain, the best thing to do is to schedule an appointment with your dentist to see what's wrong. Sometimes, though, tooth pain may strike while you're away from home, or have no time to visit the dentist at all. Luckily, there are many ways to relieve tooth or gum pain. Some methods providing temporary relief for most toothaches include:

Pain medication -This is the quickest and easiest way to relieve tooth pain. Orajel and other pain medicines are often available at drug stores, clinics, or convenience stores. You can choose from general pain relievers that work for a variety of aches and pains (headaches, toothaches, muscle pain, abdominal pain, and so on), or specially formulated dental pain relievers.

Clove oil - Applying clove oil to the affected area in your mouth can provide relief from toothache. Clove oil is cheap, and you can find it at most health food stores. This substance has pain relieving and anti-bacterial properties, making it an ideal choice as long as you can stomach its terrible taste.

Ginger or Garlic - Like cloves, these two spices have anti-bacterial and pain relief properties. Chewing on garlic or ginger or grinding them into a paste for application on the tooth are good ways to alleviate toothache. You may end up with breath that's slightly unpleasant afterward, though.
