bad toothache

Heather 🎈 • 27 | ttc 2+ yrs | 1st month medicated cycles |

I’m currently having a terrible toothache and I feel like I’ve tried all the possibilities to ease it. I called my dentist on Friday, but they have absolutely no openings until JUNE OF NEXT YEAR. 🙄 Ridiculous. I’ve tried every otc medicine. I have applied clove oil twice. But I can’t pinpoint which tooth/teeth it is. The pain is radiating to my upper jaw and causing some slight ear pain. What else can I do?? I don’t really want to go to the ER, but I’m feeling like that is my only option at this point. Any advice?

I'd go to the ER, at least they can give you antibiotics to kill the infection and maybe give you some pain meds

I recently had to, I felt guilty but I was in so much pain

That’s my thought. I feel bad going to the ER for this, but it’s SO bad

It could be your sinuses. When mine are acting up there's almost no noticable pressure in my sinuses but the pain goes from my ear and into my jaw with my back teeth hurting. Mayeb try a sinus relief med.

I didn’t even think about that! I’ll try that, especially with the way the weather has been changing lately

Have you called a different dentist office? I suggest urgent care over the ER.

I tried calling 2 others on Friday, and all I got was their voicemails and no returned call 😕 and the other down fall is that the urgent care centers here close at 5 on sundays for some crazy reason
