What should I do if I'm having pain from my wisdom teeth growing in?

Patient's Concern

I'm having major pain in my back molars because my wisdom teeth are coming in. I have no insurance at the moment so I can’t get to a dentist for a few days.

I’m in excruciating pain, I feel like I’ve tried everything. What should I do?

Dr. James Williams's Response

I am sorry to hear about your pain. The following treatment is recommended to resolve your problem:

• Pain medication such as Motrin or Aspirin.
• Application of clove oil on the tooth.
• Warm salt water rinses.
• Contact an emergency dental network provider in you area.

I hope this information resolves your problem.
