The Winter season calls for lip-smacking warm desserts like gulab jamun, gajar ka halwa, imarti, etc. People with a sweet tooth tend to gorge on these delicacies and later get troubled by toothaches. If you also fall in this category, you need to either stop over-indulgence in sweets or practice good oral hygiene to strengthen oral health. However, if you deal with the same problem, again and again, you must see a dentist. It could be an alarm of an underlying issue that may lead to a critical oral condition. Meanwhile, for immediate relief, you can try some remedial options.
Home remedies for toothache. Saltwater Rinse: One of the most-recommended first-line treatments for toothache is saltwater gargle or rinse. Table salt can be easily found in our kitchens and it is a great natural disinfectant too. Toothache mostly occurs when food particles get stuck in between teeth. Rinsing with saltwater softens them and eliminate them. This also aids other oral infections or wounds that may be troubling your oral health. Mix a teaspoon of salt in a large glass of lukewarm water. Rinse your mouth with this solution. Hydrogen Peroxide Rinse: Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical that should be diluted before use. It helps in alleviating tooth pain, killing germs and bacteria present in the mouth, healing swollen or bleeding gums, and reducing plaque. After diluting hydrogen peroxide in water, rinse your mouth with this solution. NOTE: Do not swallow or consume this liquid as it can cause health problems upon entering the system. Thus, if you are planning to use hydrogen peroxide, use it with caution.
Peppermint tea: Peppermint apart from having a refreshing aroma and cooling flavour, is also a potent tooth pain reliever. Don’t believe us? You might have heard about the numerous benefits of consuming peppermint tea but it can also provide relief for toothache. It soothes the gums and lessens the pain. Alternatively, you can also use a peppermint tea bag to aid toothache. Just place the used peppermint tea bag on the affected area. For better results, use either a warm or cool peppermint tea bag. They provide nearly similar benefits. Garlic: Is there anything that garlic cannot help with! Amidst so many uses and benefits of garlic, reliving toothache is certainly surprising. Garlic is a potent antioxidant and antibacterial product. It is been used as a remedial ingredient for many conditions. Toothache and dental plaque are some of the problems that can be treated with the use of garlic. To use garlic for toothache, just crush 2-3 cloves and make a paste. Apply this paste to the paining area and try to not swallow it. Alternatively, you may also chew garlic so that its essence reaches the gums and relieve pain. Cloves or clove oil: This is one of the most common oral problem remedies. Clove contains Eugenol that is a natural pain reliever and antiseptic. Chewing cloves or applying clove oil on the affected area would numb the gums and reduce the pain. These are some of the remedies for toothache. You must visit a dentist if you frequently suffer from toothache or other oral problems. Also, control sweet cravings as they negatively affect oral health.
