Damn Toothache.

TLDR: Damn Toothache.
In the forum thread, user Catsmother discussed an ongoing issue with severe toothache, which has been exacerbated by an inability to secure an emergency dental appointment due to COVID-19 restrictions. Catsmother tried remedies like clove oil, ibuprofen, and Panadol, but these provided only temporary relief. Other users sympathized with Catsmother's situation and offered alternative home remedies such as vanilla extract and warm salt water, suggested by users Nymphatina and ZandraJoi. User jaminhealth recommended Myrrh Tincture for dental pain relief. The discussion highlighted the community's support and shared frustration over accessing dental care during the pandemic, as well as a variety of home treatments for toothache relief. Catsmother also mentioned having to cancel an upcoming dental appointment due to other commitments and noted that the pain occasionally subsides before returning.

I have had toothache for weeks but it eased for the last week until today when it returned :( It was really bad today so I called my dentist for an emergency appointment but they said they are not doing emergencies because of COVID and the earliest they can see me is 13th October so I guess that I will have to put up with pain until then :(

I have put clove oil on it and taken ibuprofen and Panadol which works for about an hour or so then the pain returns.

We have tried vanilla extract as well & it works wonders!
@Catsmother Do you know the cause of your tooth pain? HUGS as I know how bad tooth pain can be!

Yeah my tooth is broken :(
I am going to have to cancel the dentist as I will be away that day.
Touch wood but it seems to have gone now but it was the same a few weeks back it stopped then come back.
 
What I keep on hand all the time, is Myrrh Tincture, I would occasionally get some pain in certain areas of my teeth and drop and rub this Tincture there and it's gone . Do research on this for dental pain.

Now an extraction or filling may be needed but that's another issue.
