Managing the Pain of Erupting Molars and Wisdom Teeth


Posted on 12/20/2017 by Thomas Mahar
Wisdom Teeth Mahar Dental NY 13212-4103
When you have tooth pain, you will know it right away because it is one of the most painful things you can suffer from. Imagine the pain toddlers go through during the teething phase.

Of course, you do not remember when you were that young and teething but once you start to have pain from erupting molars and wisdom teeth, you can realize what a toddler goes through when they are teething.

How do you manage the pain until you get to see your dentist? Here are some tips and home remedies to help you ease the pain for as long as you can.

Rinse Your Mouth

One way to help ease the pain caused by erupting molars and wisdom teeth is to rinse your mouth out with warm salt water. Take a small glass of warm water and stir in a teaspoon of salt until it dissolves. Place this in your mouth for 30-60 seconds, swishing it around while it is in your mouth and spitting out after you are done. Do this as much as you need to throughout the day to help manage the pain.

Over-The-Counter Pain Relievers
Over-the-counter pain relievers, especially Ibuprofen, can help with the inflammation that may be the culprit of the pain. Ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory. You may be experiencing pain because your gums are inflamed, and this is the best over-the-counter pain reliever there is available.

You can try many different things to help ease the pain, but these above are the best two things to do that will help the most. However, there are some home remedies that can help as well including oil pulling, using tea tree oil in your mouth, putting a clove or clove oil in your mouth, and many more.

As always, you should call us for help with your dental problems. We will help you in any way we can to ease the pain you are experiencing from erupting molars or wisdom teeth.
