Should see a dentist, could cause bad issues and if you have bateria in the tooth i *CAN* kill you.. or the infection could get to you..\n\nBut take advil, tylenol, aleve.. ect.. try to find a doc Monday. - if it gets too unbearable.. go to the ER\n\nI've had a infected pulp, and i had to have a root canal. so i know all about this situation quite well.. But only thing will stop the pain is find out what is causign it and have it taken care of.

Could be a number of things already mentioned here.\n\nBaby teeth don't always fall out before the age of 10...My nephew is 12 and still has about 5 or 6 baby teeth. Baby teeth can fall out a few at a time as the bigger adult teeth coming through behind them pushes them out of the way.\n\nAs you don't eat a lot of sweet things..do you make sure that you floss and brush properly?\nIf not then start and don't let up.\n\nGet your mum to take you to the dentist at the earliest you can to rule out any gum disease.\n\nMy dad brushed his teeth all the time but developed a gum disease called Pyorrhea and his teeth fell out when he was 17.\n\nSo get to the dentist before you have NO teeth left!

There are numbing products available over the counter.  ie Ora Gel, etc.  Ask your pharmacist, which is best.\n\nAlso, be sure to take Motrin.  It is the most effective pain killer for bone/teeth pain, that is available over the counter.  The idea about eating ice sounds good, too!  It will help soothe the inflammation.\n\nYou do need to get in touch with your dentist.  Maybe, he could call you in a prescription, that will do you...until you can get to his office.\n\nI really am sorry, that you are in pain.  I would definitely, get the numbing products and take the Motrin...at the same time.  It should, at least, take the edge off.

Looks like you've got a couple things going, there.  Severe anemia and huge chance of infection!  I'm sure you would want to be well and properly medicated (antibiotics) before hand.  I'm guessing you have a physician who follows your case.  He/she is the one who should prescribe the medications. \n\nI wish you well.  My daughter has no spleen, and infection is always a concern.  With the additional diagnosis I'm sure there are other concerns.  Definitely talk with your doctor about the root canal.

call your dentist immediately could be an allergic reaction to medications.  or the pain medication could be your problem.  none the less nothing to mess around with.

Although I am not familiar with this, the problem isn't with your teeth - its in the gums.  Try proper brushing techniques.

First of all, NEVER hold aspirin on a tooth. It contains acid which will damage the enamel of your tooth.\n\nThere are community centers to help low-income people with dental emergencies. If you have an absess, you need to seek professional help now. The infection can spread to the rest of your system and mean serious health problems.\n\nCall your local dental society. If you are in the US, try looking up your state dental society and ask them for community outreach programs. Chances are, there is a sliding-scale clinic which can help you for a reduced fee.\n\nIf you had a broken arm, you'd find a way to fix it, right? This is just as serious.

i have been taking anti-depressants for the last 2 1/2 years or so, mostly zoloft, and paxil for a short while. i began to experience teeth grinding/jaw clenching soon after i initially started on the anti-depressants. i have since been diagnosed with tmj. no surgery has been required yet, but i am wearing through the mouthguard something fearsome, and am still in pain. i have since quit the anti-depressants all together. a class action suit might be a good idea.

You can take Tylenol (recommended dosage)\nrinse you mouth w/ warm salt water.\n\nyou can rub clove oil on your tooth area (where pain is coming from)\n\nyou can go to the ER and get pain medication until you can get into the dentist\n\nI am not sure what exactly you have done.  If you have swelling?\nHave you broken a tooth?  Have a large cavity?  Need a root canal?  If the pain continues please see a dentist!  You could have an infection.  \n\ndental problems can cause poor over all health.

If the Dental provider didn't prescribe you any antibiotics, I would make sure and keep the area clear of debris with a spray bottle of water and just rinse it out (the empty space) with tepid salt water after each meal (but try and eat on the other side if possible) and before bed. Be careful, do it lightly, as you don't want the blood clot to come out, that is when you will wake up out of a dead sleep and WANT an injection from the dentist!! Keep on carefully brushing and flossing the rest of your teeth, and rinse well afterwards, mouthwash wouldn't hurt, but not necessary in my opinion. Keep it clean and don't eat anything at a restaurant, just soft food, slowly, and carefully rinse out anything that may try to get in the space. Some people put gauze in there, but that could prevent the clot from forming and if there are bacteria in there, it may allow it to grow underneath it. I'd just try and keep it clean. Water pik on very low if you have one.

Contact your local or state dental association and and see if there are any dentists who provide free or reduced cost care for low-income, disabled or senior patients.\n\nCall your local health department and ask about health centers that provide dental care for free or on a sliding scale.\n\nYour local United Way may also be aware of such a clinic.  In some areas, you can reach them now by dialing 2-1-1 for "non-emergency information."\n\nGo to a dental school, if there is one near you, for reduced costs.\n\nCheck http://www.toothwoman.net to see if low-cost or free dental services are available near you.\n\nCheck http://bphc.hrsa.gov and choose "Find a Health Center" to see if there is a low-cost clinic near you.

Talk to your doctor and to your dentist and see what they have to say. I would probably say it's okay (except for the painkillers, possible), but to be on the safe side, TALK TO YOUR DENTIST AND YOUR DOCTOR!

Free may not be the best option.  I know your teeth are not the best from your existing condition but, you do not want to have bad dentistry done and end up in pain or even worse without teeth.  I would recommend doing your research and save your money.  Find the best doctor and have a beautiful smile for life.  You can contact a local laboratory to find out who they prefer.  They see many of these cases every day from different dentist. If you are stuck on free still you can contact your local university and see if they are doing research on your condition.
