"You could try some over-the-counter pain relief or even some clove oil if you have it at home; it might help ease that throbbing discomfort.
Speaking of tooth-related expenses, it's a common dilemma. We know we should prioritize dental care, but sometimes, we delay it until the pain becomes unbearable!
On another note, I've been considering getting invisible braces for myself. They seem like a convenient way to straighten teeth without the hassle of traditional braces. Hang in there, and I hope your toothache subsides soon!"

I totally feel your pain with toothaches; they can be a real nightmare! Waiting until the 23rd must feel like an eternity.

Do you live in the wild?

What kind of ridiculous dentist is that?

23rd... ridiculous.... find a new dentist..... by then that infection can back up into your jawbone. are they started you on antibiotics yet?

ora gel or aleve really helps

Try clove oil(or whole cloves over the painful area). And call your dentist. You ought not wait 3 weeks!

You must always have your teeth in good order ! you never know when you need to bite someone ?

I think you might want to be more assertive...truly. A toothache is nothing to joke about. Can you find a different dentist that can help you sooner? If all else fails, do you know about the numbing medicine they give to babies who are teething? Baby Orajel helped me through a weekend when I couldn't reach my dentist. Best of luck to you.

My sympathies, I have had toothache in the past and it must be just about the worst pain I ever experienced. My dentist is pretty good and would fit me in immediately if it was an emergency, and I think you could say that severe toothache was just that. I had an abscess in the gum below one of my teeth earlier this year and my dentist fitted me in during his lunch-break! I guess I just have a more caring dentist, but I would ring again and try to get them to see you sooner.
