Acupressure can help relieve toothache by stimulating the Quanliao point (cheekbone fissure) and Jiache point (jawbone). The Quanliao point is located under the cheekbone, while the Jiache point is located halfway between the corner of the mouth and under the earlobe. Not
only can acupressure relieve toothache, it can also relieve sinus congestion and improve blood and lymph circulation in the area. Additionally, it can help control the gag reflex in those who are sensitive to dental instruments.
Guava leaves
Guava leaves are an effective natural alternative to painkillers and other dental products. Their anti-inflammatory and antibiotic properties make them a perfect remedy for toothache.
Chewing guava leaves provides temporary relief from toothache as the juice from the plant penetrates deep into the tooth pulp. They also act as a mouthwash and help disinfect the affected area.
garlic
Garlic is an effective natural remedy for toothache because its antibacterial properties help fight bacteria that cause tooth decay and bad breath.
To use garlic as a toothache remedy, chew a clove or make it into a paste and apply it directly to the affected area. Alternatively, you can use garlic as a mouthwash to wash away food debris and tartar buildup.
Peppermint tea
Peppermint tea has several health benefits, including preventing bad breath. The natural menthol in peppermint reduces inflammation and kills bacteria that cause bad breath.
If you are suffering from toothache, try applying a packet of peppermint tea to the painful area. This simple but effective natural remedy works wonders. You can
also drink peppermint tea to numb your gums and reduce pain. Keep it in your mouth for at least 15 minutes for maximum benefits.
