3. Hydrogen Peroxide
Hydrogen peroxide might be known to most people of a certain age as the best way to bleach their hair blonde, but there are many different uses for this chemical you can find at the majority of drug stores – and either as a last resort before seeing your doctor or as a good alternative to salt, hydrogen peroxide might control potential toothache when it happens.
Never apply it directly to an injury site, especially not where the toothache is present: Peroxide has a tendency to ” boil” and fizz the moment it comes into contact with anything wet – and it’s not the type of feeling you want to feel in an open wound or nerve.
Instead, the correct way to make use of hydrogen peroxide is by adding a minuscule amount to water and then gargling with the water in the same way you would have used saline solution. Keep in mind that the facial muscles don’t like being engaged with toothache: Rough, rapid gargling tends to be painful.
