Toothache
If you have a Toothache
- Call Hobart Place Dental on 6247 9230 for the next available appointment
- First rinse mouth with warm water to remove debris
- If swelling is present place a cold compress to the outside of the cheek (do not use heat as this will draw the infection towards the skin)
- Take paracetamol rather than aspirin, as aspirin thins the blood
- Do not place aspirin on the gum or tooth. This causes soft tissue to burn
