1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt , a few iodine drops , add warm water, stir. Floss and brush your teeth first. Sip the solution and hold it in your mouth as long as possible, spit out don't swallow. Repeat during the day. Before bedtime do it again. Worked for me within hours.
@@Jadeddoxy Yes; you don't want to drain any dental abscesses by yourself! Doing so may actually make your gums more prone to infection! This should be done by a licensed physician or dentist-if the need is determined. Sometimes, the dental abscess doesn't need draining, but rather, an appt. w/a dentist for removal; & an oral antibiotic in the meantime-& an extra round of antibiotics-at the discretion of dentist-will suffice. [Note: if the wait for a dentist is too long, then see a general practitioner for Rx-strength ibuprofen & antibiotics.]. They may/ or may not/ prescribe: narcotics [e.g. Tylenol w/codeine #3 or #4 ; hydrocodone bitartrate w/acetaminopen or Hydrodone/APAP [that is: "Norco , Vicodin. Lortab"-usually they do NOT prescribe these types of meds anymore.].
Just had an abscessed molar yanked yesterday. Cracked tooth at a weird angle that didn't even show up on x-rays. Dentist thought that i might have "bruised" the tooth. No abscess back a month ago but this last weekend the pain returned and my left check just blew up. It's a special kind of pain. It was amazing how fast it happened once it got going. First thing in the morning to the dentist. Drained it and got me referred to a Oral Surgeon. They had a 10 AM cancellation and the tooth was out by 11 AM. So grateful to have the pressure and pain gone. Now just recovering and then get scheduled for an implant. once healed up.
I just had an abscess and I brushed my teeth with baking soda , then gargled with Colgate that has peroxide in it , then made a paste of baking soda with water and put it on my gums for 10 minutes , then used more of the mouthwash while the baking soda was still sitting and gargled another 5 minutes . Abscess gone ! Now I’m good to deal with the tooth issue until I see my dentist next week .
I don't think it gone it's probably gone down but nit just disappeared. I went to dentist 6 months ago for a filling and he took 2 ex rays as had pain when biting he said I had 4 but I had no pain what's so ever and didn't do a thing about it just said to come back if they hurt. !
I had a pus filled bump on my gums next to a previous root canal for several weeks. Went to the dentist and he said I needed an extraction because the root canal was not done well and could not be fixed. I used a chlorine dioxide and DMSO solution on it for about ten days and the bump was greatly diminished. Went back and told the dentist that I was treating it and didn't want the extraction. He showed me the previous x-ray where the infection was visible and said it could get much worse. Then he took a new picture and after looking at it, he turned and said "What you're doing is working". The bump is totally gone now and I know the infection is gone.
Most people watching this video will be in oral agony. The presenting doctor could have made this video without giggling most of the way through it. In short, visit your dentist.
@@Worldofmonica-jk Of course he does! it has made him a millionaire many times over no doubt. ;o) "for profit" medical persons, are ghouls to my mind. Though the nation has many positives about its peoples and culture, it is one of the reasons I am happy not to be American.
I’ve done everything this dentist mentioned and some. I had a tooth pulled and a temporary bridge placed. I asked the dentist if I needed antibiotics and he told me I’ll be fine. Well, I’m not fine. I went to my Drs to get amoxicillin prescribed and almost passed out at her office (dental office was on vacation). I ended up at the hospital 3 times, heart rate spiking feeling super weak, light head, severe pain like I’m going to pass out. Saw my dentist finally, told me to start taking Zpak since amoxicillin didn’t work. Today is day 5 of the zpak and The huge abscess hasn’t gone away or the symptoms. Something I tried that temporarily numbed it is placing a fresh piece of ginger to the sight. It’s all scary, painful and frustrating. At this point I’ve done everything and I’m praying for God to heal me and heal whoever reads this. May it be his will, in Jesus name, Amen 🙏🏼
I had absolutely gorgeous teeth two years ago ( my parents spent a fortune on an expander, braces, etc..) I have always brushed after each meal and flossed twice a day. But in 2020, I was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer and underwent months of Chemo & Radiation. I beat it (Hooray❤️) but then my teeth became my enemy. It started with my front tooth cracking one day. I hadn't eaten anything hard, there was no trauma, the tooth just cracked, and a week later it totally broke off. After that I got an abbsess, and was given antibiotics. The pain went away, and I was in college full time so I just ignored it. BAD CHOICE, over the next year a a half almost all my teeth have broken off, decayed, and became infected. I've been on antibiotics over a dozen times. Unfortunately, no one takes my Medicare ( I am on SSDI) & I have no dental insurance and the free clinics around here have over a year waiting list. I am writing this for two reasons, 1. If I had had that front tooth pulled ( even if I had to do it myself) I wouldn't be in this position. 2. It's pathetic that here in the U.S. so many people still die every year from a tooth infection! Questions: 1. Do Chemo and Radiation affect your teeth? 2. Do cavities really spread? Thank you.
WooooooW @Angelhaycock6928 sounds like your telling my story. Glad you went into remission. I myself had Ovarian Cancer and am in remission 9yrs now. 🙌🏾🙌🏾 Before Cancer happened I was a victim of scam. A dentist used my fathers medicare to do unnecessary work for insurance. It's so unfortunate they really don't understand the pain they're putting us through and the confidence goes down, people treat me like I'm a drug addict. I hate it.
This dentist said the word "NASTY" too many times! Like if he is disgusted to treat people with dental problems. Why he became a "dentist" in the first place! SMH! Where is his COMPASSION? It's terrible when you can't trust your caregiver! And the home remedies he mentioned were like an afterthought. It feels like we are still in the DARK AGES regarding DENTISTRY and other health care areas. SMH! (shaking my head x1000) . By personal experience, in order to prevent and/or cure gingivitis and/or an abscess, you can use a WATERPIX MACHINE, add a tablespoon of BAKING SODA to the water, and clean the area between the gums and the teeth to destroy the bacteria colonies. . Also, you can do WARM SALTY WATER GARGLES or COCONUT OIL SWASH in order to cleanse or medicate the mouth, throat, and teeth to help eliminate the trouble-maker bacteria.... because BACTERIA is the dental problem we must fight! . Hope this commend helps someone. Dental Problems can happen to anybody, being for lack of knowledge or help. . Dec. 3, 2022
I’ve birthed two children and I prefer it over this pain. Agony doesn’t even describe what I’m feeling. Getting to a dentist today, i hope they get this tooth out of me.
@@QU33N_CASSIts better to get some antibiotics first,If you remove the tooth with a pus bag it could burst into your system and cause some complications..The antibiotics will stop the pain in afew hours or less .
Had over 50 of these in 5 years, 3 to 4 at a time and used to pop them myself with a needle I'd rinse with alcohol. Yup now I'm here with 26 teeth remived waiting for dentures, people don't ever leave them. I urge you see the dentist straight away
What's so sad, is back in the day the dentist would pull this tooth out, but now they send you to a surgeon where you have to pay over $1000. What a scam. 🙄
I had an abscess on a molar that had a root canal done 8 years ago and that was the worst freaking pain of my life. It started on a Friday and Saturday morning the dentist gave me Amoxicillin and ibuprofen 800mg listen that did nothing for me the pain got worse! From Saturday night to Sunday morning I was crying and screaming in pain with a swollen cheek! Found a dentist open on Sunday and begged them to remove my molar. They agreed and the minute my molar was extracted all the pus and pressure is gone and I feel soooo much better. Finishing up my antibiotics and I’ll be getting a (flipper) and then getting my implant. I had no idea that an abscess in your tooth could hurt that much and it should be illegal for emergency rooms not to have a dentist on staff cause it was a mission to find a dentist on the weekend!!!
Amen! Lying awake in pain. Can’t get it removed yet because my mouth is swollen shut. When the swelling goes down, then they can do the procedure. Who knew this could hurt worse than child birth.
@@mireyarodriguez8306 I got dry socket in mine after extraction...the removal of it and the placing of gauze in the wound makes most grown men cry ill just say that!!!!
Take a spoon of a baking soda ( the one for baking only ); One cut of warm -cool like water Mix it all together & rinse your mouth with it for about 2-5 min .. I know it’s take little bit of time but trust me it really helps to take horrible pain away !! Currently dialing with tooth abscess so it’s really helps .. & of course gonna visit dentist soon!! Hopefully this helps to all of you !! Wish you health & happiness ! Gods bless !!🤍
Thanks abesces over my left molar was so tight, it became so tight without relief. I brush my entire teeth with peroxicare deep clean by arm and hammer then apply warm salt 💧 relief try took my precribe amocillion and ibuprofen... next a follow up with a spoon of baking soda to a glass of very warm water ...it came to head..POW the yoke it broken...relief ....Thanks! Now to numb and pack it for tonight. 😊 again. I am scheduled to have it removed in two weeks 🙃. Change of oral care along with soft meals is mandatory for while..
baking soda Should be safe for teeth🤔 but my dentist told me to rinse with salty water once every 50 mins … yet I googled that salty water for too often would damage teeth🤔
I've tried everything that bloody apse will not go away it doesn't pain been 2 weeks now been on medication for 2 weeks . Infection still not gone been on amoxicillin 1000 mg twice a day still nothing
Chewing on a garlic clove helps tremendously with tooth pains, it is also a very effective natural antibiotic. You don't have to swallow the garlic, just spit it out and rinse after chewing.
Why does it feel like dentistry is still stuck in the dark ages. I love how he says there are multiple ways to treat it when it basically comes down the typical same old two options; root canal which is hit and miss and then tooth extraction wher3 you have a giant gap.
Most dentists are stuck in the dark ages, but not all... The Weston Price foundation can point you in the direction of a probably good dentist. This guy, while well intentioned is giving a good deal of bad advice.
I think bout that all the time. I've got a rear molar thats disintegrating that's become a project as to how long I can keep it and a molar on the other side that developed an abscess on the other side that started after a filling on that tooth. It's been 5 yrs and it only gives me a problem one in a while.As I've lose faith in all local medical options, it won't be treated until either have no other choice, or else move away from this shithole. From my experience, the abscess isn't in the tooth, but rather below it.
@@ravenbarsrepairs5594 Its a similar situation to me. I had a filling done on my tooth and then months afterwards developed an abcess, which keeps recurring every several months. Have you noticed what seems to trigger a flare up of your abcess? I'm convinced chewing something tough starts mine off.
@@acquiesce100 bread tends to set mine off. I've been kind of following a primal/paleo diet for years, which I was lead to due to it's similarities to the heal tooth decay diet. I haven't seen any real healing, but my dental problems have stabilized. If I add bread back into my diet, it flares up. Being dehydrated also makes it worse.
@@ravenbarsrepairs5594 Interesting.I'm convinced Tuna or Chicken which really has to work my Jaw has something to do with it. Of course, the dentists dismiss it. So if I do have chicken or Tuna, it's in very small pieces and i soften it down. I didn't think about the dehydration angle. Will keep an eye on that. It's so frustrating.
Had a tooth abcess on me last night I am in the upper middle part of Maine called the emergency room in Bangor They said there is nothing that they do for dental issues can prescribe antibiotics but will need to wait until dentist office opens Monday Went online and searched there is no dental care in Maine on the weekend The lack of knowledgeable dental care providers up here is really scary and the fact that hospital emergency rooms don't even have access to give care for dentistry in 2022 is pretty unbelievable I called my primary care and they are calling in an antibiotic to start me on and will be at the dental emergency clinic Monday first thing when they open This pain is awful Thank you for the informative video
Just had an abscessed tooth out yesterday. It’s been bugging me for months. So glad it’s out. Not enjoying seven days of strong antibiotics but glad to have gotten rid of the pain. Severely dental phobia
the comment section is more useful than the video itself. here is what i have gathered from what i have read here as well as elsewhere. to get rid of the abscess, you need to get rid of the bacteria. in order to do that the 2 ways are through amoxicillin and another method is oil pulling. im currently having swollen gums bottom left under the 2nd or 3rd molar. just saw the GP and she gave me amoxicillin and mentioned that this antibiotic is especially good for gum related bacterial issues. at the same time ill be coconut oil pulling 4 times daily. just hope this abscess/swelling will be history very soon. the feeling sucks!😪😪p.s. painkillers just subside the pain TEMPORARILY. it will come back soon after. reason? the bacterium are still having a party in your gums dats y. expel the bacteria and the swelling will be a thing of the past
Hello .. I enjoyed this video. A few years ago I had a root canal and last year the tooth became infected again. I didn't notice right away because the root canal took away the nerves but there was a lump on my chin I was advised it needed to be extracted so I went to the dental office that did the root canal. My doc there told me a tooth has two roots and only one was infected on this tooth. He said I could have a "Root Amputation" and just remove the infected root leaving the tooth intact. So this is what he did. The infected root was removed and now the tooth is anchored by only one root. And the area where the infected root used to be was filled with bone graft. I just had my one year check up. The tooth is doing well and the bone graft has solidified. I am very careful with the tooth and make sure not to chew anything too hard with it. I am really happy with result. The tooth was saved ! .
They died. Bad dentitionary was one of the number one things that killed human beings for the vast majority of our history because everyone has to eat and as you said for a long time we just did not have any dental hygiene at all.
I had a tooth abscess one Christmas, the dentist gave me a numbing injection (that hurt more the the damned abscess) then he incised the gum and used a suction machine to remove the pus. Horrible experience, but when I walked out of the dentist office I could close my jaw and teeth 🦷 together without being in agony. The oral antibiotics worked well, but I had a low grade temp for a couple of days, loss of appetite for 6-7 days. Had root canal work done and the tooth has been fine since. Anyone suffering from an abscess now has my sympathy and I hope they feel better soon. These abscesses are total bugers! 😢
@@johnnycage435 I, personally didn’t have to have an extraction. The antibiotics worked well, and it was approx 3 months after I had root canal work done. I have had no problems since. Each person is different, as are their teeth 🦷
I've needed to go for months but I don't have insurance and have lost my job. I had 2 weeks of severe pain. The pain is gone now but I have swelling on my gum around the tooth. Sometimes it feels like I have a huge rock in my mouth. It cracked and decayed a long time ago. It's definitely a abscess now.
Video Title: How to cure abscess teeth Dentist in video: There is no cure. Having me rip your teeth out is the number 1 recommendation. All I'm hearing for solutions instead of legitimate self oral care advice. You can do regular appointments to get a thorough clean for your teeth as well as antibiotics. Your mouth can and will recover if you commit to high maintenance. I am not a dentist, but I speak from personal experience. I was lazy and didn't think my teeth would be susceptible to decay. But I ended up with cavities, gingivitis, and yes, even abscess teeth. Thankfully however, I made a comeback and although the cavity damage can't be undone (get them drilled and filled), they are stronger now.
I'm in a similar situation and wish I had known this sooner, unfortunately I already had the tooth pulled but I'll definitely keep this in mind if I ever have this problem again
What the dentists won't tell you , gargle with warm salt water and gargle cold pressed organic raw coconut oil helps as well. I'm suffering through an abscess right hand it is the most excruciating pain I've ever had and I've had 2 children! My entire face is swollen I go to get it pulled out in a day but I'm scared cuz I'm in such pain and I know it'll be worse after they mess with it. Everytime I go to any dentist they purposely leave little Nick's in my teeth that cause cavities and stains. I don't trust them . I never had a single cavity until I was 31 years old and now I have abt 10 or more and I take care of my teeth! The best part is the tooth I have an abscess on has already had a root canal and crown! I should not be having this severe problem. I went to dental school and was a dental assistant so I know how they keep u coming back.
@@JodyMorgan0220 Hi, I am much better now that they pulled that tooth. It wasn't as bad as I thought just to pull it but I still had swelling and pain for a week afterwards. Now Im just waiting for the hole to close up and wondering why they didn't stitch it shut cuz everything I eat gets in it then I have to gargle with salt water to get it out. What a complete racket! Thanks for asking! God bless you.
@@kellynh9303 I'm so glad to hear you are okay. And thank you for replying. I got a filling a couple weeks ago and now I am just getting the swollen cheek so now they're telling me they need to go back in for a root canal. I just want it pulled.
@@k.k8000 Aww thank you as well. I used to be a dental assistant and medical assistant, they only care Abt money. It's hard to find a dentist that doesn't and puts your needs first .I finally found one and she told me I could go get a 2nd root canal on the tooth I just had pulled but seeing my face swollen with an abscess she said I'm sure you just want it out and gave me a referral to get it pulled. It's still healing so I have to swish with pink Himalayan salt Everytime I eat since food gets stuck in there but it's not killing me anymore Thank God! I will never go through a root canal again after having one and the tooth still getting infected and needing to be pulled but this was a molar in the back so if it was a front tooth I would have felt different. It's all up to you if you feel comfortable getting a root canal ,it's a lengthy procedure, mine took 2 hrs and was fine for 5 yrs before it became infected. I do wish you luck with your decision and I'm praying for you to be at ease and pain free. God bless you 🙏❤️ Ice packs help with the swelling, no heat that makes it worse. If it's still hurting tell your dentist and get pain meds prescribed. They're usually very stingy with them but will prescribe 800 Motrin or antibiotics that help. I'm really into oil pulling with raw organic coconut oil cuz it reverses cavities and dental issues but you have to be consistent and do it every day . I usually forget so of course I have to go have cavities filled next month . I'm trying to oil pull more often and see if it'll really heal my cavities without going to the dentist a million times for cavities they caused by leaving tiny Nick's in my teeth . Anyway going luck . I hope it works out for you 💕
@@k.k8000 Your are absolutely stunning ❤️if your still having to pay out of pocket and the tooth isn't visible or in front the cheapest option is to have it pulled.
My dentist initially said I needed a root canal....Now she says I have an abscess at the gum-line, and recommends a deep cleaning, the root canal has been called off.
I wonder why is this a big problem in the western countries when in east asia most people experience a swollen jaw due to dental abscess but people doesn't really undergo surgery they only take medicine or herbs and it heals, most of the people I know and my sister experienced it she didn't even went to dentist for extraction or surgery now after years she still okay with no pain. our common remedy if not herbs is extraction m after that we never go back to dentist for the same tooth.
Thanks for this video, Dr. Coughlin! At the end of the day, you just really have to see a dentist. Good thing kriss ai helps me with my dental questions. Anyways, I guess the best thing to do is just take care your dental health.
Absolutely, couldn't agree more! Great video by Dr. Coughlin .Regular dental check-ups are crucial for maintaining good oral health. Prevention is key! How can I use this Kriss AI ?
Dr. Coughlin’svideo hitss the nail on the head about not ignoring dental stuff. been using Kriss AI for quick advice on dental issues, and it’s eased my nerves before actual dentist visits. Super helpful for getting a heads up on what to expect.
My tooth was abscessed for the dentist said it wasn't because my cheek would be all swollen up. You can tell it was abscess because there wasn't a cavity but it hurt when you put pressure on it with your finger and bite.
The title of this video is somewhat misleading. It shouldn't say "How to Cure an Abscess Tooth." It should say "How to Treat an Abscess Tooth." To cure it implies that there is something you can do to make the abscess go away without tooth extraction or root canal.
Im sure thats exactly what they mean.....i just left the er cause one flared up on me outta nowhere i thought oh it eill go away maybe but it got bigger in 24 hrs and i got scared .....diet plays a big part....i was to scared to get it drained tonite but i have to go back for x rays then i will have to face the truth ...so im guees ing i gitta get it drained firsrt and then they do the tooth surgery....smh im over it ...i dont like needles or the dentist @wannaakpan1489
Hello, I am panicking right now because I read that a tooth infection can lead to sepsis and death. I got an infection 3 days ago, I have a big swelling on my face, yesterday I went to my dentist here in Graz, Austria. he cleaned the tooth, applied medicine and prescribed antibiotics to fight the infection. I feel much better and have no problems or pain, but I am still very anxious. I was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder a year ago. HELP ME PLEASE 😩🙏 i just read the news from 2017 that a dental abscess killed a 26 year old from california. now I'm even more scared.
Oh geez so I have legit same issue as u I have severe anxiety and an abscess and I’m also freaking out thinking I’m gonna get sepsis as well…I also live in California so sigh…really unfortunate to hear of this death
I had an abscess occurred under one of my front teeth about 7 months after snapping my tooth in half and getting it repaired, it spread to the tooth next to it as well. I couldn’t sleep for like 48 hours and I never want to experience that torture ever again,
I support that Statement, they're expensive and painful as a motherfucker. I got one done cuz of and infected broken tooth and I now just have a fat abscess in my gum. I'm trying to pop it to drain it but the skin won't give in. I'm gonna try putting a pice of raw garlic in it.
You made no mention of dental probiotics. Such products vary in effectiveness because of different formulations with different brands but in general they are effective in crowding out the infection-causing pathogens. In some cases a tooth that seems like it must be extracted can stay permanently after the infection dissipates in response to dental probiotics.
@@kathylittle3900, Amazon... I found one most recently called Riven that is a mouthwash with (supposedly) live probiotics in it. Developed by a dentist they say. Seems to work well. Before that I tried quite a few others. Only one that seemed good was one called Bionaze. That's a tablet you let dissolve in your mouth... The mouthwash one seems to be effective though
Back in 2017 I got a root canal done on one of my front tooth , today for about month now I have this periapical abscess looking thing on the same tooth I got the root canal done. It’s not painful unless i touch it and no swelling. Is my teeth reinfected? I’m seeing dentist soon, I just dislike dentist who provide unnecessary treatments just to make profit.
I had this, it was leaking puss and blood every 2 days, fixed it by storing listerine in my mouth for 15 minutes right after a fresh wound. used listerine twice every day and pushed at my tooth absess with listerine in my mouth so puss would come out and negative pressure would suck listerine into the wound. has been a month and no more tooth absenss. there is still a cavity under my tooth filling thou. I tried salt water, needle to drain absenss, which was not permanent , only reduced absenss size for 2 days.
I've been to my present dentist twice in the past 5 years. I call them, The Make Work Dentist. I go in for something simple like a cavity fell out with no pain and end up with a root canal. I go in for a chipped molar with no pain and end up with a crown on that one, now with pain, and a crown on the root canal tooth. I have had an abscess for years and I never went in to have it checked because I don't trust the dentist. They say I need a root canal from a specialist that will cost me $3700 out of my pocket. I just don't have the money. Insurance but no money. Forced retirement for 13 years and living on Social Security. Ever since I saw them three months ago, I have had a severe neck problem. Had an ear infection a month ago but I thought that might be from my new hearing aids. Even the way they handle me feels like I am on an assembly line. I just don't trust them.
Most Dentist charge a lot - they have a High over Head- they have many technicians working for them .. some would say overpriced. And besides - they have to Outsource the Dental Work to a Lab . Cause most Dentist DO NOT HAVE A Lab. More $$ CHARGED - to You .
@@PraveenSrJ01 Please continue to floss and brush daily! Having a tooth abscess was truly the most excruciating pain i’ve ever experienced! Wouldn’t wish that pain on my worst enemy.
Turns out it is actually more serious than what I thought it is Now I decided to go to the dentist if the swelling doesnt relieve tomorrow For now, good night.
One word...BENADRYL. You may be sleepy for a few hours after you take it, but it WILL get rid of the swelling, pain, and infection. The pus from the infection is nothing more than poisonous mucus. The benadryl is made to help sinuses (a lot of it is controlling mucus). It worked for me within 20 minutes. Knocked the pain out QUICK, took down the swelling, and after 2-3 days passed, the abcess was still gone.
Did you say it got rid of the abscess because I'll do anything i can to keep my body from being poisoned. I have my first abscessed tooth and it's scaring the hell out of me I'm sitting here thinking I'm going to die.
My brother just had to go to the emergency room. He found out that ALL the teeth he had work done on in the past DECAYED UNDER THE CROWNS and he got SEPSIS as a result! He had all the "solutions" to infection done, but STILL the infection/decay continued underneath and he had to have all those teeth pulled in the long run. Root canals do NOT "heal" a tooth. It is a temporary solution that does not "fix" the problem. A root canal might temporarily resolve the problem, but the tooth continues to decay underneath, and apparently crowns do NOT stop bacteria from getting inside , or else maybe the bacteria was not cleared out completely to begin with. I had two crowns come off, and underneath was awful looking - the teeth had turned black inside. I decided to leave the crowns off.. one of them won't be able to be replaced anyway, because the tooth broke off with the crown on it, and there is no longer anything for the crown to adhere to. The other one at least most of the tooth is still there. I keep them clean, using thymol mouthwash to kill any bacteria and/or virus that gets in the mouth regularly, and I even brush them. I would now suggest daily and even multiple times a day rinsing with a thymol based mouth wash, AND even periodically using salt water rinse to make your mouth the least hospitable to bacteria as you can. The best way to take care of your teeth is to make SURE you floss daily, use mouthrinse that kills bacteria/viruses (like a thymol based mouthwash, or maybe two kinds, one with alcohol, followed by one with thymol) and QUIT SMOKING IF YOU ARE A SMOKER. Quit drinking sugary drinks throughout the day if you have a habit of drinking them. SMOKING REDUCES CIRCULATION AND CAN CAUSE DENTAL PROBLEMS EVEN IF YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR TEETH. The one where the tooth broke off at least has the lower part of the tooth still there BELOW the gum line. I know this because I can feel the edges of the tooth barely sticking up and can seen bone instead of a gaping hole. Brushing them and using mouthwash several times throughout the day seems to keep them as healthy as they can be. No way I am taking the chance of paralyzing my face by having the rest of that tooth removed - teeth become brittle after a root canal and can fragment - if pieces of the fragments fall inside, they can paralyze the face. I did have one pulled years ago - it became brittle, then broke in half some years after it had been treated, when I bit down on food. Thankfully it did not fragment when the dentist removed it. I have left the space open in my mouth, and nothing has shifted. Again, that is because the JAW is what holds the shape of your mouth and dictates where the teeth will sit. Unless your JAW shifts, your teeth spaces remain the same based on my own experience. It has been over 20 years since that tooth was pulled, and my other teeth all remain where they were.
My abscess was "under my molar" and they extracted it. It felt so so so good when they got it loose and pulled the tooth iut, I felt the firbres ripping (not a bad sensation) and they cleaned it out and put some sort of gel in the hole and got on a 3x 500mg amox 10 regiment. It feels so good now... I'm thankful.
Thank God these abcess treatment procedures aren't *"painful"* in any way. I was extremely nervous because I have an abscess and will be getting it checked out soon.
@@zacktyler2810 Well, it's not painful, you just feel a sensation, neutral imo. its just the ligaments that ripped are pulling past the gum, but after it hurts for maybe.. 6-7 hours and just take acetaminophen, or hydro if needed, just a 5mg one though, it really isn't too bad!
Just tried this! I didn't have cotton balls but I used cotton swabs and it worked! I mean, I ended up popping it but it did still help with the swelling and pain
Went 5 yrs with a lower tooth abcess that spread to my neck & jaw. I have permanent nerve damage in my jaw for life. Don't wait folks! Get that thing pulled!
Mine hurts so bad I’m going to the dentist later this week and I’m so mad because I hate going to my dentist they’re so judgmental 😡 why did this happen to me 😢 I take care of my teeth. I brush my teeth everyday and floss! I don’t get it!!! I don’t want them to remove my tooth! I’ll look so ugly 😭
Cut carbs out of ur diet…I didn’t know until recently that the body produces a certain idk…chemical…to break down carbs…whatever this chemical is happens also to be very hard on the teeth..wears down the enamel and causes inflammation…would have been nice to have known this when I was young lol…also periodontal disease is caused by some sort of microbe or fungus that lives around the base of a tooth and builds up plaque as it’s home in a way and eats at the tooth and root and gums…in order to kill it is uv light treatment and stuff like peroxide and coconut oil swishing…another thing I think we all should have been taught when we are young…plus nutrition…boron is a necessity for healthy strong teeth and gums…my teeth were all loose on the left side of my mouth…started researching vitamins cuz I have always taken vitamins so why are my teeth so weak…boron along with k2 & D3 plus calcium and magnesium and a few others…u need the k2 & boron to get the calcium to go to the areas it’s needed like the teeth…so I got some boron and took my k2 & D3 and multivitamin and now my teeth aren’t loose anymore and not as much pain..inflammation has gone down as well…I think that we have been misinformed in order for the dental industry to make tons of cash off our ignorance…corporate dentistry…and if the dentist office want to be judge mental…send them some info on abusive behavior by professionals and what it does to a persons psyche when having to deal with abusive dentists…that’s what it is…abuse. And no one deserves to be abused by these greedy pos…they neglect to educate their patients in necessary care like what vitamins to take and how to kill periodontal disease…I went on a low carb diet for several years and during that time I had zero issues with my teeth..I introduced some carbs back into my diet and now my teeth are severely decaying…that’s what made me do the digging to find out about the carb effect in teeth…corporate dentistry is a huge problem in the US at least…they will do a root canal and intentionally leave part of a root so that the patient will have “phantom” pain…continued work needed so every time u come in for ur phantom pain, they can charge u another $150+
Oh MAN!!! I tried the clove on an abcess once and I put clove oil on it and silent screamed! It hurt waaaaaay worse. I will just stick to the liquid benzocaine lol
I searched up how to get rid of tooth abscess pain and this is what I get while suffering through the worst pain of my life And I gave birth twice! Thanks for nothing!
One of the best natural treatments ive come across, is tumeric powder dissolved in water..strong solution. swish 10mins at least. takes inflammation and pain down. Also ,wheatgrass powder, do same thing..works wonders. Make sure strong solution...like nearly 1tsp in a mouthfull of water. Also, as a natural antibiotic...oliveleaf extract works well.
The worst pain I've ever experienced was my 2nd to last molar on my top right side. The top teeth hurt more imo because the pain pulses up into your head. Mine was horrible at night when trying to sleep. This pain was worse than when I got my appendix out.
Hi I’m suffering from same problem. It’s 1.33am here and I’m kinda worried because of this problem. Can you please suggest me any solution that would help me?
I've been dealing with an abscess for years, in and out of the ER with infections, no insurance, no help from my worthless family who know but don't care. I've been unemployed since 2020 due to covid. Is there any way I can get help somehow? I feel like it's affecting my heart.
Get into contact with various churches until one of them help you and most importantly pray on it and cast your burdens unto God so that He might sustain you
my daughter had tooth pain and a little abscess forming guess what completely took the pain away and helped her abscess? I mixed cold pressed raw coconut oil with TUMERIC and I rubbed it all over her teeth and gums . put alil on her toothbrush and brushed her teeth with it . also made her swish it in her mouth (it is called oil pulling) . .for one minute and then we rinse, and brush her teeth as usual afterwards. took it away almost instantly . I also rotate that with baking soda and peroxide paste ...morning and night followed by a regular brush to get rid of the taste since it really bothers her. took it completely away!
Can you share the ratio how much tumeric ans coconut oil to mix? Thank you currently dentist wants to extract my childs tooth but I really want to try and see ir I can get rid of the infection. It's funny how they didn't give me any other choice besides pulling the whole tooth out
Had a root canal on molar. Had BC/BS through job. Beginner Dentist did the root canal, it broke off in root. Head Dentist said. "I can fill around it, and you'll be fine." I left that dentist office. Seven or eight years later, I woke up with fever and golf ball size swelling at jaw. Called primary care Dr. he said, "possibly salavitary gland infection." Sent me to my new dentist. When he saw me, his eyes got big, examined me, and sent me to Endodontist. I had to be hospitalized four days for sepsis and oral microscopic surgery to remove broken bit and extract 2 teeth. Did continue with oral care with my new dental hygienist until CV19 hit. My dentist had aneurysm and retired. The new dentist (young) took over the practice. They set up an appointment he said, "You need a root canal on the molar on the other side of lower jaw." I had no pain whatsoever. He sent me to another Endodontist, that tapped on my molar with little metal hammer. I knew then, I would not be submitting to any treatment there. Two years, molar cracked, and root was exposed. I used Red Cross natural Eugenoil Oil to treat pain, using electric toothbrush 2x daily. Root finally died and came out. No more pain! Now I have PTSD concerning Dentists.
I really hope you are okay. Just this week I experienced a tooth with a recent filling (2.5 months old) that was cracked, and ended up with a root abscess. I feel that the initial filling was rushed and I believed not even justified, I was told there was decay but I checked my teeth daily, my tooth was fine and pain free before the new filling, fast forward 2.5 months and it needed a root canal or extraction. I had it extracted because of the abscess pain. I have had headaches for roughly 2 weeks due to the tooth pain, but it's slowly healing up now with some antibiotics as well. I can understand the PTSD, what started out with a check up (I think my teeth were OK to say the least), ended up with a filling, 2.5 months later an extracted abscess. Hope you can heal well.
there is ONE sure fire way..its just takes along time an lots of will power. its called fasting nothing but water. your body goes into autophagy after a while, at around day 3 full circle. and it eats away problems..and abcess being a problem it will be taken care of. you just dont know what day that happens on.
Well when your hella below the poverty line can't afford insurance and have kids to support you rely on clove oil and some pain pills are unfortunately your alternative.
Here's something to think about. I have had a swollen area at the base of a molar for a few years. When I finally went to a dentist, who I don't trust, they did a cleaning that I call a Power Washing. I think it's a water jet that gets under the gums. Since then, the swelling has been a lot less, but my neck has been very sore and radiates into my head when I bend over or sneeze. It's terrible when you can't trust your caregiver.
@@susanmetz9892 My Point is, don't just think that anybody is a "Highly trained professional, they Must know what they are doing." THINK, for yourself. Use your own Common Sense and Logic. If something doesn't sound right, it may not be right. There have been Make Work professionals throughout All industries. Just because it's health related, doesn't mean they are all saints. Followers won't agree with me on that.
I must appreciate Dr odija on UA-cam for helping me in getting rid of Norovirus, Your product for healing stomach bug is really the best keep saving lives!!!
@m v My hygienist power washed my gums and after that the infection was half. I horizontally brushed so the bristles would ran out any dirt and soaked the area with hydrogen peroxide. It's almost gone and didn't need a $5000 root canal. 'Make Work Dentist.
I'm not sure how a root canal, killing the root of a tooth, actually saves it. The tooth is dead without the root, the crown is just put in place to try to save the shell of the tooth. Pyrogenium is a homeopathic remedy for deep infections, septic infections, bone infections and fevers. I'm currently using it, my tooth hasn't flared up in over a year but i want to kill the infection, also using another method. So far so good.
Just curious, can a dental implant become infected? I have had one in for about 11 years, no issues, but I was just wondering do they generally last forever, without any infection or other major issues?
It can get infected like natural teeth but with good oral care it can last a very long time, it just doesn't develop cavities the way natural teeth can
This is really dumb simply because the pain from an infected tooth is some of the worse you will ever experience, leaving it isn't an option. You have to treat it.
I've had a pimple start showing up on my gums the last couple weeks. Its been popped about 4 or 5 times so far. pus comes out and then it appears to be gone.... But it keeps coming back. No pain or discomfort, but i'm guessing its an abscess.
I heard to not let it pop because the pus is bacteria that can spread quickly. I’ve had one for years that goes away for a long time with no issue. I should have gotten it pulled and replaced years ago. But it’s expensive. So I found being healthy is what keeps it away. When I’m eating fast food or candy it comes back. I let myself go and it just came back so I’m going to hit the vitamin c hard, garlic/lemon, tea, vegetables, and a good diet.
Mine was an abscess. I had to take Azithromycin anti-biotics for 7 days. 3 tablets a day to remove the infection. And then they performed a root canal, which was painless. I didn't feel anything. In total it cost me about $200 because i am on vacation in Colombia. Dental work is very cheap here.
Update for people who haven’t tried this : had a boil on my gum for a few years and could pop it daily and it would come back. I literally used some garlic and put it on my gum for about half hour, 20 mins maybe and I’m not kidding I burned my gum have myself a massive ulcer where the boil was. when the ulcer went the abscess/boil was gone. Just to be clear expect crazy pain when putting the garlic directly onto the infected area. It means it’s killing it for you. Stick it out
@@kittylifyyy boil on my gum was so annoying. Could feel it on my gum. Especially after a fizzy drink or like alcohol it would seem to be more noticeable. Garlic kicked it’s ass
Interesting, gonna look into this. My “mouth pimple” went away after like 3 years of dealing with it. Two days later I’m dying with pain! I’m guessing bc I can’t drain it anymore. Fuck me! 🥴
Is it safe to remove the tooth when there’s prevalent swelling or would they normally wait to treat with anti-bionics before extraction to prevent bacteria spreading
Really good video. My complaint is, I established myself with a local cooperate dentist. I got an abscess. Called my dentist because the pain came on fast and was unbearable. They wouldn't take me in as an emergency but said they would get me in in two weeks! I called around trying to find another dentist to see me. No one would establish me as a new patient because they were so booked up and busy. I ended up driving 45 minutes to another small town to be seen by a new office of dentist to get help and spending $6000 out of pocket to deal with this.
I have an abscess above my tooth because of lots of bad root canal work, even had n apecieotomy (cant spell it lol). Another wee op or removal is only way to treat it. Get it out is my advice, not worth it pain wise or financially 😔
Extraction is the way to go because root canals cap in the abscess and it never heals and root canals give deadly diseases by traveling through your tooth to your jaw to your skull to your heart, people die from these.
I’m In So much pain right now. The last 5 days have been very hard. Almost no sleep. The dentist said they don’t see an infection but when I was feeling around on my gums a little while ago I felt a spot that really got my attention near my wisdom tooth. It hurt but it ended up bleeding. My next dentist appointment isn’t until sept 28th ugh!
I had two abscesses when I was in 2nd grade. If I pushed on the pimple, my mouth filled with fluid. After changing dentists, the abscesses was drained and my teeth were taken care of. I don't remember if the doctor prescribed anything. That was in the 1980's. The abscesses were in my baby teeth. One on each side of my lower jaw.
Oh great. I've a tooth that's chipped. I used Orajel Dental Gel Benzocaine 20% rapid toothache relief. To sooth it but it trapped something in the tooth and when i cleaned the infected tooth with a toothbrush it pinged off. Long story short. I had swelling felt sick. Had a Round hard lump underneath it and it was hot. It smelled bad in my mouth and used warm salt water to swill around my mouth that i spat out. I cleaned the tooth twice a day. Didn't see the pimple on my gum. I then treated it with a cold compress of ice in a plastic bag. It would hurt more if my mouth was open at night. Today the swelling has gone down but still a big lump underneath the big chewing tooth. I phoned a Hospital care line on sat and was told to call around my local dentist office's. They are all closed till Monday. ( With the pandemic ) there's a big backlog of dental appointments. So if i get seen i will probably have to pay for treatment. I thought it was getting better! As the swelling went down and the pain all but stopped. It's obviously not 😢 so if i can't get a dental appointment. I'm going to my ER room to get antibiotics and then get the tooth pulled out. I've had abscesses before but oh boy this one is 💥( owch ) I would recommend get a dentist appointment asap and don't let it get bad like i did
Abscesses are not fun! If you've had one, what helped?
1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt , a few iodine drops , add warm water, stir. Floss and brush your teeth first. Sip the solution and hold it in your mouth as long as possible, spit out don't swallow. Repeat during the day. Before bedtime do it again. Worked for me within hours.
Taking pain pills drinking lots of water and taking medicine they gave me for a infection
@@Jadeddoxy Not a good idea at all!
@@ticks4ticks4 aw man 😭
@@Jadeddoxy Yes; you don't want to drain any dental abscesses by yourself! Doing so may actually make your gums more prone to infection! This should be done by a licensed physician or dentist-if the need is determined. Sometimes, the dental abscess doesn't need draining, but rather, an appt. w/a dentist for removal; & an oral antibiotic in the meantime-& an extra round of antibiotics-at the discretion of dentist-will suffice. [Note: if the wait for a dentist is too long, then see a general practitioner for Rx-strength ibuprofen & antibiotics.]. They may/ or may not/ prescribe: narcotics [e.g. Tylenol w/codeine #3 or #4 ; hydrocodone bitartrate w/acetaminopen or Hydrodone/APAP [that is: "Norco , Vicodin. Lortab"-usually they do NOT prescribe these types of meds anymore.].

Just had an abscessed molar yanked yesterday. Cracked tooth at a weird angle that didn't even show up on x-rays. Dentist thought that i might have "bruised" the tooth. No abscess back a month ago but this last weekend the pain returned and my left check just blew up. It's a special kind of pain. It was amazing how fast it happened once it got going. First thing in the morning to the dentist. Drained it and got me referred to a Oral Surgeon. They had a 10 AM cancellation and the tooth was out by 11 AM. So grateful to have the pressure and pain gone. Now just recovering and then get scheduled for an implant. once healed up.
Good luck!
I just had an abscess and I brushed my teeth with baking soda , then gargled with Colgate that has peroxide in it , then made a paste of baking soda with water and put it on my gums for 10 minutes , then used more of the mouthwash while the baking soda was still sitting and gargled another 5 minutes . Abscess gone ! Now I’m good to deal with the tooth issue until I see my dentist next week .
How is your tooth now x
@@S-jy4fd not one issue ever since . I did this once a day for a week and it was gone
@@destaneehoward thank you so much xxx
Did you eventually get scan done to see what was happening in the roots/gums to cause the inflammation in the first place?
I don't think it gone it's probably gone down but nit just disappeared. I went to dentist 6 months ago for a filling and he took 2 ex rays as had pain when biting he said I had 4 but I had no pain what's so ever and didn't do a thing about it just said to come back if they hurt. !
i never seem a dentist cure anything. real talk. thy mostly are just surgeons.
People like this is why going to the dentist is hard.
Like what?

Like he is a realter telling you now is not the best time to sell😮😅🎉
I had a pus filled bump on my gums next to a previous root canal for several weeks. Went to the dentist and he said I needed an extraction because the root canal was not done well and could not be fixed. I used a chlorine dioxide and DMSO solution on it for about ten days and the bump was greatly diminished. Went back and told the dentist that I was treating it and didn't want the extraction. He showed me the previous x-ray where the infection was visible and said it could get much worse. Then he took a new picture and after looking at it, he turned and said "What you're doing is working". The bump is totally gone now and I know the infection is gone.
Thank you !!

The pain is absolutely excruciating, it sort of hammers rhythmically with your pulse!
Omg you best described it I keep telling my husband it feel like a heart beat sometimes
Throbbing.
Drumming😮
I’ve done everything this dentist mentioned and some. I had a tooth pulled and a temporary bridge placed. I asked the dentist if I needed antibiotics and he told me I’ll be fine. Well, I’m not fine. I went to my Drs to get amoxicillin prescribed and almost passed out at her office (dental office was on vacation). I ended up at the hospital 3 times, heart rate spiking feeling super weak, light head, severe pain like I’m going to pass out. Saw my dentist finally, told me to start taking Zpak since amoxicillin didn’t work. Today is day 5 of the zpak and The huge abscess hasn’t gone away or the symptoms. Something I tried that temporarily numbed it is placing a fresh piece of ginger to the sight. It’s all scary, painful and frustrating. At this point I’ve done everything and I’m praying for God to heal me and heal whoever reads this. May it be his will, in Jesus name, Amen 🙏🏼
Hope you’re feeling better I just had an infected tooth pulled in January 4 and they put some stitches in so far so good
Hope you are feeling well. 🙏
Prayers to you 🙏🙏🙏 I too have a small Abscess tooth
That sounds like the onset of sepsis

I had absolutely gorgeous teeth two years ago ( my parents spent a fortune on an expander, braces, etc..) I have always brushed after each meal and flossed twice a day. But in 2020, I was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer and underwent months of Chemo & Radiation. I beat it (Hooray❤️) but then my teeth became my enemy. It started with my front tooth cracking one day. I hadn't eaten anything hard, there was no trauma, the tooth just cracked, and a week later it totally broke off. After that I got an abbsess, and was given antibiotics. The pain went away, and I was in college full time so I just ignored it. BAD CHOICE, over the next year a a half almost all my teeth have broken off, decayed, and became infected. I've been on antibiotics over a dozen times. Unfortunately, no one takes my Medicare ( I am on SSDI) & I have no dental insurance and the free clinics around here have over a year waiting list.
I am writing this for two reasons,
1. If I had had that front tooth pulled ( even if I had to do it myself) I wouldn't be in this position.
2. It's pathetic that here in the U.S. so many people still die every year from a tooth infection!
Questions:
1. Do Chemo and Radiation affect your teeth?
2. Do cavities really spread?
Thank you.
Cancer can have a negative effect on your teeth and tooth infections can spread around your body if left untreated for too long
💯 cancer treatments are poison to the body, not just the cancer. To answer your question...yes.
WooooooW @Angelhaycock6928 sounds like your telling my story. Glad you went into remission. I myself had Ovarian Cancer and am in remission 9yrs now. 🙌🏾🙌🏾 Before Cancer happened I was a victim of scam. A dentist used my fathers medicare to do unnecessary work for insurance. It's so unfortunate they really don't understand the pain they're putting us through and the confidence goes down, people treat me like I'm a drug addict. I hate it.
Read "Cure Tooth Decay" book
Radiation and chemo is known to rot the enamel and jaw bone.
This dentist said the word "NASTY" too many times! Like if he is disgusted to treat people with dental problems. Why he became a "dentist" in the first place! SMH! Where is his COMPASSION? It's terrible when you can't trust your caregiver! And the home remedies he mentioned were like an afterthought. It feels like we are still in the DARK AGES regarding DENTISTRY and other health care areas. SMH! (shaking my head x1000)
.
By personal experience, in order to prevent and/or cure gingivitis and/or an abscess, you can use a WATERPIX MACHINE, add a tablespoon of BAKING SODA to the water, and clean the area between the gums and the teeth to destroy the bacteria colonies.
.
Also, you can do WARM SALTY WATER GARGLES or COCONUT OIL SWASH in order to cleanse or medicate the mouth, throat, and teeth to help eliminate the trouble-maker bacteria.... because BACTERIA is the dental problem we must fight!
.
Hope this commend helps someone. Dental Problems can happen to anybody, being for lack of knowledge or help.

Nasty is a word to describe nasty unfortunately
Worst pain I’ve ever had. Over broken bones, torn muscles, getting shot in the hand. Abscess tooth is no joke
Worst pain 😢😢😢 I am dealing with one right now from a medication.
Can concur.
My mom had an abscess tooth that the pain was so bad she tried to pull out the tooth herself which made the pain even worse.
I’ve birthed two children and I prefer it over this pain. Agony doesn’t even describe what I’m feeling. Getting to a dentist today, i hope they get this tooth out of me.
@@QU33N_CASSIts better to get some antibiotics first,If you remove the tooth with a pus bag it could burst into your system and cause some complications..The antibiotics will stop the pain in afew hours or less .

I had an abscess on a molar that had a root canal done 8 years ago and that was the worst freaking pain of my life. It started on a Friday and Saturday morning the dentist gave me Amoxicillin and ibuprofen 800mg listen that did nothing for me the pain got worse! From Saturday night to Sunday morning I was crying and screaming in pain with a swollen cheek! Found a dentist open on Sunday and begged them to remove my molar. They agreed and the minute my molar was extracted all the pus and pressure is gone and I feel soooo much better. Finishing up my antibiotics and I’ll be getting a (flipper) and then getting my implant. I had no idea that an abscess in your tooth could hurt that much and it should be illegal for emergency rooms not to have a dentist on staff cause it was a mission to find a dentist on the weekend!!!
That's great to hear from you. I have an abcess and I am extremely relieved to hear that the treatment procedure isn't painful.
Amen! Lying awake in pain. Can’t get it removed yet because my mouth is swollen shut. When the swelling goes down, then they can do the procedure. Who knew this could hurt worse than child birth.
completely agree that there should be a dentist available in emergency rooms~
How have you been feeling since then after your molar tooth removal?
@@mireyarodriguez8306 I got dry socket in mine after extraction...the removal of it and the placing of gauze in the wound makes most grown men cry ill just say that!!!!
Take a spoon of a baking soda ( the one for baking only );
One cut of warm -cool like water
Mix it all together & rinse your mouth with it for about 2-5 min ..
I know it’s take little bit of time but trust me it really helps to take horrible pain away !!
Currently dialing with tooth abscess so it’s really helps ..
& of course gonna visit dentist soon!!
Hopefully this helps to all of you !!

Thanks abesces over my left molar was so tight, it became so tight without relief. I brush my entire teeth with peroxicare deep clean by arm and hammer then apply warm salt 💧 relief try took my precribe amocillion and ibuprofen... next a follow up with a spoon of baking soda to a glass of very warm water ...it came to head..POW the yoke it broken...relief ....Thanks! Now to numb and pack it for tonight. 😊 again. I am scheduled to have it removed in two weeks 🙃. Change of oral care along with soft meals is mandatory for while..
baking soda Should be safe for teeth🤔 but my dentist told me to rinse with salty water once every 50 mins … yet I googled that salty water for too often would damage teeth🤔
I've tried everything that bloody apse will not go away it doesn't pain been 2 weeks now been on medication for 2 weeks . Infection still not gone been on amoxicillin 1000 mg twice a day still nothing
Chewing on a garlic clove helps tremendously with tooth pains, it is also a very effective natural antibiotic. You don't have to swallow the garlic, just spit it out and rinse after chewing.
It works, though not as good as a coconut oil pulling.

Why does it feel like dentistry is still stuck in the dark ages. I love how he says there are multiple ways to treat it when it basically comes down the typical same old two options; root canal which is hit and miss and then tooth extraction wher3 you have a giant gap.
Most dentists are stuck in the dark ages, but not all...
The Weston Price foundation can point you in the direction of a probably good dentist.
This guy, while well intentioned is giving a good deal of bad advice.
I think bout that all the time. I've got a rear molar thats disintegrating that's become a project as to how long I can keep it and a molar on the other side that developed an abscess on the other side that started after a filling on that tooth. It's been 5 yrs and it only gives me a problem one in a while.As I've lose faith in all local medical options, it won't be treated until either have no other choice, or else move away from this shithole. From my experience, the abscess isn't in the tooth, but rather below it.
@@ravenbarsrepairs5594 Its a similar situation to me. I had a filling done on my tooth and then months afterwards developed an abcess, which keeps recurring every several months. Have you noticed what seems to trigger a flare up of your abcess? I'm convinced chewing something tough starts mine off.
@@acquiesce100 bread tends to set mine off. I've been kind of following a primal/paleo diet for years, which I was lead to due to it's similarities to the heal tooth decay diet. I haven't seen any real healing, but my dental problems have stabilized. If I add bread back into my diet, it flares up. Being dehydrated also makes it worse.
@@ravenbarsrepairs5594 Interesting.I'm convinced Tuna or Chicken which really has to work my Jaw has something to do with it. Of course, the dentists dismiss it. So if I do have chicken or Tuna, it's in very small pieces and i soften it down. I didn't think about the dehydration angle. Will keep an eye on that. It's so frustrating.

I am in the upper middle part of Maine called the emergency room in Bangor
They said there is nothing that they do for dental issues can prescribe antibiotics but will need to wait until dentist office opens Monday
Went online and searched there is no dental care in Maine on the weekend
The lack of knowledgeable dental care providers up here is really scary and the fact that hospital emergency rooms don't even have access to give care for dentistry in 2022 is pretty unbelievable
I called my primary care and they are calling in an antibiotic to start me on and will be at the dental emergency clinic Monday first thing when they open
This pain is awful
Thank you for the informative video
I love how this guy laughs at the mention of pain. Lol
Just had an abscessed tooth out yesterday. It’s been bugging me for months. So glad it’s out. Not enjoying seven days of strong antibiotics but glad to have gotten rid of the pain. Severely dental phobia

Was you cheek swollen too?
the comment section is more useful than the video itself. here is what i have gathered from what i have read here as well as elsewhere. to get rid of the abscess, you need to get rid of the bacteria. in order to do that the 2 ways are through amoxicillin and another method is oil pulling. im currently having swollen gums bottom left under the 2nd or 3rd molar. just saw the GP and she gave me amoxicillin and mentioned that this antibiotic is especially good for gum related bacterial issues. at the same time ill be coconut oil pulling 4 times daily. just hope this abscess/swelling will be history very soon. the feeling sucks!😪😪p.s. painkillers just subside the pain TEMPORARILY. it will come back soon after. reason? the bacterium are still having a party in your gums dats y. expel the bacteria and the swelling will be a thing of the past
Did it end up working that you didn’t need the tooth pulled?
Did oil pulling help get rid of abscess?
Hello .. I enjoyed this video. A few years ago I had a root canal and last year the tooth became infected again. I didn't notice right away because the root canal took away the nerves but there was a lump on my chin
I was advised it needed to be extracted so I went to the dental office that did the root canal. My doc there told me a tooth has two roots and only one was infected on this tooth. He said I could have a "Root Amputation" and just remove the infected root leaving the tooth intact.
So this is what he did. The infected root was removed and now the tooth is anchored by only one root. And the area where the infected root used to be was filled with bone graft.
I just had my one year check up. The tooth is doing well and the bone graft has solidified. I am very careful with the tooth and make sure not to chew anything too hard with it. I am really happy with result. The tooth was saved !

I wonder what people did back in the caveman days to cure a tooth abscess 🤒 (other than knock that sucker out with a rock)
P.S. great video, thanks!
Improve drainage and healing of an abscess with homeopathy.
Hepar sulfur , Belladonna, Silicea

Lol that would have sucked
They died. Bad dentitionary was one of the number one things that killed human beings for the vast majority of our history because everyone has to eat and as you said for a long time we just did not have any dental hygiene at all.
I’m terrified of dentists
I had a tooth abscess one Christmas, the dentist gave me a numbing injection (that hurt more the the damned abscess) then he incised the gum and used a suction machine to remove the pus. Horrible experience, but when I walked out of the dentist office I could close my jaw and teeth 🦷 together without being in agony. The oral antibiotics worked well, but I had a low grade temp for a couple of days, loss of appetite for 6-7 days.
Had root canal work done and the tooth has been fine since.
Anyone suffering from an abscess now has my sympathy and I hope they feel better soon. These abscesses are total bugers! 😢
Similar story but on new years day🥴
Do you lose the tooth or do the antibiotics help
@@chotu5781 Go and see a dentist as soon as possible. It will not go away on it’s own.
@@johnnycage435 I, personally didn’t have to have an extraction. The antibiotics worked well, and it was approx 3 months after I had root canal work done. I have had no problems since. Each person is different, as are their teeth 🦷
@@chotu5781 if you still have problems perhaps you should go back to the dentist
Sir i got $1.67 you really effin think i can afford to fix it 🤬 p.s i currently have a golf ball on my face
I've needed to go for months but I don't have insurance and have lost my job. I had 2 weeks of severe pain. The pain is gone now but I have swelling on my gum around the tooth. Sometimes it feels like I have a huge rock in my mouth. It cracked and decayed a long time ago. It's definitely a abscess now.
Fun huh I don't have insurance either at dentists are really expensive
Video Title: How to cure abscess teeth
Dentist in video: There is no cure. Having me rip your teeth out is the number 1 recommendation. All I'm hearing for solutions instead of legitimate self oral care advice. You can do regular appointments to get a thorough clean for your teeth as well as antibiotics. Your mouth can and will recover if you commit to high maintenance. I am not a dentist, but I speak from personal experience. I was lazy and didn't think my teeth would be susceptible to decay. But I ended up with cavities, gingivitis, and yes, even abscess teeth. Thankfully however, I made a comeback and although the cavity damage can't be undone (get them drilled and filled), they are stronger now.
I'm in a similar situation and wish I had known this sooner, unfortunately I already had the tooth pulled but I'll definitely keep this in mind if I ever have this problem again
I have dental flossed brushed all my life still go access. Still have teeth that break. It called age. Nothing last for ever.
What the dentists won't tell you , gargle with warm salt water and gargle cold pressed organic raw coconut oil helps as well. I'm suffering through an abscess right hand it is the most excruciating pain I've ever had and I've had 2 children! My entire face is swollen I go to get it pulled out in a day but I'm scared cuz I'm in such pain and I know it'll be worse after they mess with it. Everytime I go to any dentist they purposely leave little Nick's in my teeth that cause cavities and stains. I don't trust them . I never had a single cavity until I was 31 years old and now I have abt 10 or more and I take care of my teeth! The best part is the tooth I have an abscess on has already had a root canal and crown! I should not be having this severe problem. I went to dental school and was a dental assistant so I know how they keep u coming back.
How are you doing now?
@@JodyMorgan0220 Hi, I am much better now that they pulled that tooth. It wasn't as bad as I thought just to pull it but I still had swelling and pain for a week afterwards. Now Im just waiting for the hole to close up and wondering why they didn't stitch it shut cuz everything I eat gets in it then I have to gargle with salt water to get it out. What a complete racket! Thanks for asking! God bless you.
@@kellynh9303 I'm so glad to hear you are okay. And thank you for replying. I got a filling a couple weeks ago and now I am just getting the swollen cheek so now they're telling me they need to go back in for a root canal. I just want it pulled.
@@k.k8000 Aww thank you as well. I used to be a dental assistant and medical assistant, they only care Abt money. It's hard to find a dentist that doesn't and puts your needs first .I finally found one and she told me I could go get a 2nd root canal on the tooth I just had pulled but seeing my face swollen with an abscess she said I'm sure you just want it out and gave me a referral to get it pulled. It's still healing so I have to swish with pink Himalayan salt Everytime I eat since food gets stuck in there but it's not killing me anymore Thank God! I will never go through a root canal again after having one and the tooth still getting infected and needing to be pulled but this was a molar in the back so if it was a front tooth I would have felt different. It's all up to you if you feel comfortable getting a root canal ,it's a lengthy procedure, mine took 2 hrs and was fine for 5 yrs before it became infected. I do wish you luck with your decision and I'm praying for you to be at ease and pain free. God bless you 🙏❤️ Ice packs help with the swelling, no heat that makes it worse. If it's still hurting tell your dentist and get pain meds prescribed. They're usually very stingy with them but will prescribe 800 Motrin or antibiotics that help. I'm really into oil pulling with raw organic coconut oil cuz it reverses cavities and dental issues but you have to be consistent and do it every day . I usually forget so of course I have to go have cavities filled next month . I'm trying to oil pull more often and see if it'll really heal my cavities without going to the dentist a million times for cavities they caused by leaving tiny Nick's in my teeth . Anyway going luck . I hope it works out for you 💕
@@k.k8000 Your are absolutely stunning ❤️if your still having to pay out of pocket and the tooth isn't visible or in front the cheapest option is to have it pulled.
My dentist initially said I needed a root canal....Now she says I have an abscess at the gum-line, and recommends a deep cleaning, the root canal has been called off.
Update pl
Too much talking! Saying the same thing over and over
Nobody asked
For my abscessed teeth, I used vodka to swish on it, I use garlic cut in half placed RIGHT ON THE TOOTH. Also... try gum for a "cap"
Tequila 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😜
Geezus u ppl are hardcore 😂
Did it go for good x
Thank you for the information. Your explanation was very helpful.
I wonder why is this a big problem in the western countries when in east asia most people experience a swollen jaw due to dental abscess but people doesn't really undergo surgery they only take medicine or herbs and it heals, most of the people I know and my sister experienced it she didn't even went to dentist for extraction or surgery now after years she still okay with no pain.
our common remedy if not herbs is extraction m after that we never go back to dentist for the same tooth.
What did she use to heal it. ? Thanks
Yes share remedies Please!!!
Thanks for this video, Dr. Coughlin! At the end of the day, you just really have to see a dentist. Good thing kriss ai helps me with my dental questions. Anyways, I guess the best thing to do is just take care your dental health.

My tooth was abscessed for the dentist said it wasn't because my cheek would be all swollen up. You can tell it was abscess because there wasn't a cavity but it hurt when you put pressure on it with your finger and bite.
I popped my own last week and thought everything was okay noooooope back worse get antibiotics people
Bruh this made mad when I it was hot
The title of this video is somewhat misleading. It shouldn't say "How to Cure an Abscess Tooth." It should say "How to Treat an Abscess Tooth." To cure it implies that there is something you can do to make the abscess go away without tooth extraction or root canal.
Sugar absolutely flares up my abssess
How?... You mean normal sugar?
Im sure thats exactly what they mean.....i just left the er cause one flared up on me outta nowhere i thought oh it eill go away maybe but it got bigger in 24 hrs and i got scared .....diet plays a big part....i was to scared to get it drained tonite but i have to go back for x rays then i will have to face the truth ...so im guees ing i gitta get it drained firsrt and then they do the tooth surgery....smh im over it ...i dont like needles or the dentist @wannaakpan1489
Hello, I am panicking right now because I read that a tooth infection can lead to sepsis and death. I got an infection 3 days ago, I have a big swelling on my face, yesterday I went to my dentist here in Graz, Austria. he cleaned the tooth, applied medicine and prescribed antibiotics to fight the infection. I feel much better and have no problems or pain, but I am still very anxious. I was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder a year ago. HELP ME PLEASE 😩🙏
i just read the news from 2017 that a dental abscess killed a 26 year old from california. now I'm even more scared.
Oh geez so I have legit same issue as u I have severe anxiety and an abscess and I’m also freaking out thinking I’m gonna get sepsis as well…I also live in California so sigh…really unfortunate to hear of this death
I had an abscess occurred under one of my front teeth about 7 months after snapping my tooth in half and getting it repaired, it spread to the tooth next to it as well. I couldn’t sleep for like 48 hours and I never want to experience that torture ever again,
What' funny....🤨🤔
I feel like dentistry need to advance. A root canal should not always be the solution.
I support that Statement, they're expensive and painful as a motherfucker. I got one done cuz of and infected broken tooth and I now just have a fat abscess in my gum. I'm trying to pop it to drain it but the skin won't give in. I'm gonna try putting a pice of raw garlic in it.
Humanity think that medical science is advanced until they visit doctors.
Your title says "cure" an abscess tooth, what was the cure? I only heard you talk about temporary measures or pulling the tooth?
You made no mention of dental probiotics. Such products vary in effectiveness because of different formulations with different brands but in general they are effective in crowding out the infection-causing pathogens. In some cases a tooth that seems like it must be extracted can stay permanently after the infection dissipates in response to dental probiotics.
Where can one get dental probiotics?
@@kathylittle3900, Amazon... I found one most recently called Riven that is a mouthwash with (supposedly) live probiotics in it. Developed by a dentist they say. Seems to work well. Before that I tried quite a few others. Only one that seemed good was one called Bionaze. That's a tablet you let dissolve in your mouth... The mouthwash one seems to be effective though
Thank you Joe
Back in 2017 I got a root canal done on one of my front tooth , today for about month now I have this periapical abscess looking thing on the same tooth I got the root canal done. It’s not painful unless i touch it and no swelling. Is my teeth reinfected? I’m seeing dentist soon, I just dislike dentist who provide unnecessary treatments just to make profit.
Yep and they do - most Dentist make Around $200,000 a Year a Dental Surgeon about 750,000 a Year or More . 🤔interesting Huh
Look into holistic dentist and watch root cause !
I had this, it was leaking puss and blood every 2 days, fixed it by storing listerine in my mouth for 15 minutes right after a fresh wound. used listerine twice every day and pushed at my tooth absess with listerine in my mouth so puss would come out and negative pressure would suck listerine into the wound. has been a month and no more tooth absenss. there is still a cavity under my tooth filling thou. I tried salt water, needle to drain absenss, which was not permanent , only reduced absenss size for 2 days.
I've been to my present dentist twice in the past 5 years. I call them, The Make Work Dentist. I go in for something simple like a cavity fell out with no pain and end up with a root canal. I go in for a chipped molar with no pain and end up with a crown on that one, now with pain, and a crown on the root canal tooth. I have had an abscess for years and I never went in to have it checked because I don't trust the dentist. They say I need a root canal from a specialist that will cost me $3700 out of my pocket. I just don't have the money. Insurance but no money. Forced retirement for 13 years and living on Social Security. Ever since I saw them three months ago, I have had a severe neck problem. Had an ear infection a month ago but I thought that might be from my new hearing aids. Even the way they handle me feels like I am on an assembly line. I just don't trust them.
Most Dentist charge a lot - they have a High over Head- they have many technicians working for them .. some would say overpriced.
And besides - they have to Outsource the Dental Work to a Lab . Cause most Dentist DO NOT HAVE A Lab. More $$ CHARGED - to You .
Try colodial silver to get rid of if.
Did u have abscess for more than a year? Can we leave it as it is if doesn't hurt.? Pls reply

Turns out it is actually more serious than what I thought it is
Now I decided to go to the dentist if the swelling doesnt relieve tomorrow
For now, good night.
What happened?
@@asor_0x got dental abscess and got so big that bothered me
Fortunately the swelling is now completely gone
@@jumarcabo3532 did u treat it like use salt rinse or u popped it?
Or u went to the dentist?
One word...BENADRYL. You may be sleepy for a few hours after you take it, but it WILL get rid of the swelling, pain, and infection. The pus from the infection is nothing more than poisonous mucus. The benadryl is made to help sinuses (a lot of it is controlling mucus). It worked for me within 20 minutes. Knocked the pain out QUICK, took down the swelling, and after 2-3 days passed, the abcess was still gone.
I’m doing this thank you hope you not playing ❤
Have you had any check up since? Can give us update please.
Thank you
update
Did you say it got rid of the abscess because I'll do anything i can to keep my body from being poisoned. I have my first abscessed tooth and it's scaring the hell out of me I'm sitting here thinking I'm going to die.
@Mr.Robbie34 If the abcess is in the root of the tooth, you will need a root canal. Or just get the tooth pulled.
I've found that doing coconut oil pulls are extremely effective in killing bacteria.
Hi Simhi... can I ask how often is good do coconut oil pulls ?
I have heard about coconut oil pulling
My brother just had to go to the emergency room. He found out that ALL the teeth he had work done on in the past DECAYED UNDER THE CROWNS and he got SEPSIS as a result!
He had all the "solutions" to infection done, but STILL the infection/decay continued underneath and he had to have all those teeth pulled in the long run.
Root canals do NOT "heal" a tooth. It is a temporary solution that does not "fix" the problem. A root canal might temporarily resolve the problem, but the tooth continues to decay underneath,
and apparently crowns do NOT stop bacteria from getting inside , or else maybe the bacteria was not cleared out completely to begin with.
I had two crowns come off, and underneath was awful looking - the teeth had turned black inside. I decided to leave the crowns off.. one of them won't be able to be replaced anyway, because the tooth broke off with the crown on it, and there is no longer anything for the crown to adhere to. The other one at least most of the tooth is still there. I keep them clean, using thymol mouthwash to kill any bacteria and/or virus that gets in the mouth regularly, and I even brush them. I would now suggest daily and even multiple times a day rinsing with a thymol based mouth wash, AND even periodically using salt water rinse to make your mouth the least hospitable to bacteria as you can. The best way to take care of your teeth is to make SURE you floss daily, use mouthrinse that kills bacteria/viruses (like a thymol based mouthwash, or maybe two kinds, one with alcohol, followed by one with thymol) and QUIT SMOKING IF YOU ARE A SMOKER. Quit drinking sugary drinks throughout the day if you have a habit of drinking them. SMOKING REDUCES CIRCULATION AND CAN CAUSE DENTAL PROBLEMS EVEN IF YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR TEETH.
The one where the tooth broke off at least has the lower part of the tooth still there BELOW the gum line. I know this because I can feel the edges of the tooth barely sticking up and can seen bone instead of a gaping hole. Brushing them and using mouthwash several times throughout the day seems to keep them as healthy as they can be. No way I am taking the chance of paralyzing my face by having the rest of that tooth removed - teeth become brittle after a root canal and can fragment - if pieces of the fragments fall inside, they can paralyze the face. I did have one pulled years ago - it became brittle, then broke in half some years after it had been treated, when I bit down on food. Thankfully it did not fragment when the dentist removed it. I have left the space open in my mouth, and nothing has shifted. Again, that is because the JAW is what holds the shape of your mouth and dictates where the teeth will sit. Unless your JAW shifts, your teeth spaces remain the same based on my own experience. It has been over 20 years since that tooth was pulled, and my other teeth all remain where they were.
My abscess was "under my molar" and they extracted it. It felt so so so good when they got it loose and pulled the tooth iut, I felt the firbres ripping (not a bad sensation) and they cleaned it out and put some sort of gel in the hole and got on a 3x 500mg amox 10 regiment. It feels so good now... I'm thankful.
Thank God these abcess treatment procedures aren't *"painful"* in any way. I was extremely nervous because I have an abscess and will be getting it checked out soon.
@@zacktyler2810 Well, it's not painful, you just feel a sensation, neutral imo. its just the ligaments that ripped are pulling past the gum, but after it hurts for maybe.. 6-7 hours and just take acetaminophen, or hydro if needed, just a 5mg one though, it really isn't too bad!
What did you do with your toothless gum (the hole after the tooth extraction)? Im afraid
I almost died from an abscess tooth. Cellulitis all thru my body from it. Do not put off getting rid of an abscess from a bad tooth.
Really informative. Thanks you.
Take a cotton ball soak it in peppermint extract and place it over your tooth. It helps cut the pain and brings down the swelling almost instantly.
Just tried this! I didn't have cotton balls but I used cotton swabs and it worked! I mean, I ended up popping it but it did still help with the swelling and pain
Like straight up essential oils?
Where the fuck you get that at
Went 5 yrs with a lower tooth abcess that spread to my neck & jaw. I have permanent nerve damage in my jaw for life. Don't wait folks! Get that thing pulled!
Mine hurts so bad I’m going to the dentist later this week and I’m so mad because I hate going to my dentist they’re so judgmental 😡 why did this happen to me 😢 I take care of my teeth. I brush my teeth everyday and floss! I don’t get it!!! I don’t want them to remove my tooth! I’ll look so ugly 😭
Cut carbs out of ur diet…I didn’t know until recently that the body produces a certain idk…chemical…to break down carbs…whatever this chemical is happens also to be very hard on the teeth..wears down the enamel and causes inflammation…would have been nice to have known this when I was young lol…also periodontal disease is caused by some sort of microbe or fungus that lives around the base of a tooth and builds up plaque as it’s home in a way and eats at the tooth and root and gums…in order to kill it is uv light treatment and stuff like peroxide and coconut oil swishing…another thing I think we all should have been taught when we are young…plus nutrition…boron is a necessity for healthy strong teeth and gums…my teeth were all loose on the left side of my mouth…started researching vitamins cuz I have always taken vitamins so why are my teeth so weak…boron along with k2 & D3 plus calcium and magnesium and a few others…u need the k2 & boron to get the calcium to go to the areas it’s needed like the teeth…so I got some boron and took my k2 & D3 and multivitamin and now my teeth aren’t loose anymore and not as much pain..inflammation has gone down as well…I think that we have been misinformed in order for the dental industry to make tons of cash off our ignorance…corporate dentistry…and if the dentist office want to be judge mental…send them some info on abusive behavior by professionals and what it does to a persons psyche when having to deal with abusive dentists…that’s what it is…abuse. And no one deserves to be abused by these greedy pos…they neglect to educate their patients in necessary care like what vitamins to take and how to kill periodontal disease…I went on a low carb diet for several years and during that time I had zero issues with my teeth..I introduced some carbs back into my diet and now my teeth are severely decaying…that’s what made me do the digging to find out about the carb effect in teeth…corporate dentistry is a huge problem in the US at least…they will do a root canal and intentionally leave part of a root so that the patient will have “phantom” pain…continued work needed so every time u come in for ur phantom pain, they can charge u another $150+
Hey are you fine now, please reply
Oh MAN!!! I tried the clove on an abcess once and I put clove oil on it and silent screamed! It hurt waaaaaay worse. I will just stick to the liquid benzocaine lol
That’s an essential oil. Did you use a carrier oil?
I searched up how to get rid of tooth abscess pain and this is what I get while suffering through the worst pain of my life And I gave birth twice! Thanks for nothing!
One of the best natural treatments ive come across, is tumeric powder dissolved in water..strong solution. swish 10mins at least. takes inflammation and pain down. Also ,wheatgrass powder, do same thing..works wonders. Make sure strong solution...like nearly 1tsp in a mouthfull of water. Also, as a natural antibiotic...oliveleaf extract works well.
Thank you for sharing Doctor.
The worst pain I've ever experienced was my 2nd to last molar on my top right side. The top teeth hurt more imo because the pain pulses up into your head. Mine was horrible at night when trying to sleep. This pain was worse than when I got my appendix out.

Great Information!!!
I've been dealing with an abscess for years, in and out of the ER with infections, no insurance, no help from my worthless family who know but don't care. I've been unemployed since 2020 due to covid. Is there any way I can get help somehow? I feel like it's affecting my heart.
Get into contact with various churches until one of them help you and most importantly pray on it and cast your burdens unto God so that He might sustain you
my daughter had tooth pain and a little abscess forming guess what completely took the pain away and helped her abscess? I mixed cold pressed raw coconut oil with TUMERIC and I rubbed it all over her teeth and gums . put alil on her toothbrush and brushed her teeth with it . also made her swish it in her mouth (it is called oil pulling) . .for one minute and then we rinse, and brush her teeth as usual afterwards. took it away almost instantly . I also rotate that with baking soda and peroxide paste ...morning and night followed by a regular brush to get rid of the taste since it really bothers her. took it completely away!
Can you share the ratio how much tumeric ans coconut oil to mix? Thank you currently dentist wants to extract my childs tooth but I really want to try and see ir I can get rid of the infection. It's funny how they didn't give me any other choice besides pulling the whole tooth out
It’s pain full and you are laughing.
Had a root canal on molar. Had BC/BS through job. Beginner Dentist did the root canal, it broke off in root. Head Dentist said. "I can fill around it, and you'll be fine." I left that dentist office. Seven or eight years later, I woke up with fever and golf ball size swelling at jaw. Called primary care Dr. he said, "possibly salavitary gland infection." Sent me to my new dentist. When he saw me, his eyes got big, examined me, and sent me to Endodontist. I had to be hospitalized four days for sepsis and oral microscopic surgery to remove broken bit and extract 2 teeth. Did continue with oral care with my new dental hygienist until CV19 hit. My dentist had aneurysm and retired. The new dentist (young) took over the practice. They set up an appointment he said, "You need a root canal on the molar on the other side of lower jaw." I had no pain whatsoever. He sent me to another Endodontist, that tapped on my molar with little metal hammer. I knew then, I would not be submitting to any treatment there. Two years, molar cracked, and root was exposed. I used Red Cross natural Eugenoil Oil to treat pain, using electric toothbrush 2x daily. Root finally died and came out. No more pain! Now I have PTSD concerning Dentists.
I really hope you are okay. Just this week I experienced a tooth with a recent filling (2.5 months old) that was cracked, and ended up with a root abscess. I feel that the initial filling was rushed and I believed not even justified, I was told there was decay but I checked my teeth daily, my tooth was fine and pain free before the new filling, fast forward 2.5 months and it needed a root canal or extraction. I had it extracted because of the abscess pain. I have had headaches for roughly 2 weeks due to the tooth pain, but it's slowly healing up now with some antibiotics as well. I can understand the PTSD, what started out with a check up (I think my teeth were OK to say the least), ended up with a filling, 2.5 months later an extracted abscess. Hope you can heal well.
So the title say “HOW TO CURE AN ABCESS” but the reality is there is no cure. It has to be fixed medically
So not in a dentists office?
there is ONE sure fire way..its just takes along time an lots of will power. its called fasting nothing but water. your body goes into autophagy after a while, at around day 3 full circle. and it eats away problems..and abcess being a problem it will be taken care of. you just dont know what day that happens on.
Well when your hella below the poverty line can't afford insurance and have kids to support you rely on clove oil and some pain pills are unfortunately your alternative.
I can’t believe you didn’t mention a salt rinse.
Is there any foods we should avoid?
Fast food and excess sugary foods and definitely soda 🥤
Here's something to think about. I have had a swollen area at the base of a molar for a few years. When I finally went to a dentist, who I don't trust, they did a cleaning that I call a Power Washing. I think it's a water jet that gets under the gums. Since then, the swelling has been a lot less, but my neck has been very sore and radiates into my head when I bend over or sneeze. It's terrible when you can't trust your caregiver.
You should definitely avoid going to any dental health care professional then. That will solve all your trust issues (eyes rolling).
@@susanmetz9892 My Point is, don't just think that anybody is a "Highly trained professional, they Must know what they are doing." THINK, for yourself. Use your own Common Sense and Logic. If something doesn't sound right, it may not be right. There have been Make Work professionals throughout All industries. Just because it's health related, doesn't mean they are all saints. Followers won't agree with me on that.
I must appreciate Dr odija on UA-cam for helping me in getting rid of Norovirus, Your product for healing stomach bug is really the best keep saving lives!!!
@m v My hygienist power washed my gums and after that the infection was half. I horizontally brushed so the bristles would ran out any dirt and soaked the area with hydrogen peroxide. It's almost gone and didn't need a $5000 root canal. 'Make Work Dentist.
@@JB91710 thank you I am going to try it.
I'm not sure how a root canal, killing the root of a tooth, actually saves it. The tooth is dead without the root, the crown is just put in place to try to save the shell of the tooth. Pyrogenium is a homeopathic remedy for deep infections, septic infections, bone infections and fevers. I'm currently using it, my tooth hasn't flared up in over a year but i want to kill the infection, also using another method. So far so good.
Just curious, can a dental implant become infected? I have had one in for about 11 years, no issues, but I was just wondering do they generally last forever, without any infection or other major issues?
It can get infected like natural teeth but with good oral care it can last a very long time, it just doesn't develop cavities the way natural teeth can
This is really dumb simply because the pain from an infected tooth is some of the worse you will ever experience, leaving it isn't an option. You have to treat it.
I've had a pimple start showing up on my gums the last couple weeks. Its been popped about 4 or 5 times so far. pus comes out and then it appears to be gone.... But it keeps coming back. No pain or discomfort, but i'm guessing its an abscess.
I heard to not let it pop because the pus is bacteria that can spread quickly. I’ve had one for years that goes away for a long time with no issue. I should have gotten it pulled and replaced years ago. But it’s expensive. So I found being healthy is what keeps it away. When I’m eating fast food or candy it comes back. I let myself go and it just came back so I’m going to hit the vitamin c hard, garlic/lemon, tea, vegetables, and a good diet.
What did u take?
Mine was an abscess. I had to take Azithromycin anti-biotics for 7 days. 3 tablets a day to remove the infection. And then they performed a root canal, which was painless. I didn't feel anything.
In total it cost me about $200 because i am on vacation in Colombia. Dental work is very cheap here.
Affer the abscess pops how do you make sure it never comes back?
Update for people who haven’t tried this : had a boil on my gum for a few years and could pop it daily and it would come back. I literally used some garlic and put it on my gum for about half hour, 20 mins maybe and I’m not kidding I burned my gum have myself a massive ulcer where the boil was. when the ulcer went the abscess/boil was gone. Just to be clear expect crazy pain when putting the garlic directly onto the infected area. It means it’s killing it for you. Stick it out
is it for real cuz i have a boil on my gum everytime I pop it..it comes back so should I try this?
@@kittylifyyy yeah ain’t no joke. It hurts tho just as a heads up. You’ll definitely end up with an ulcer but that heals and the boil goes.
@@kittylifyyy boil on my gum was so annoying. Could feel it on my gum. Especially after a fizzy drink or like alcohol it would seem to be more noticeable. Garlic kicked it’s ass
Interesting, gonna look into this. My “mouth pimple” went away after like 3 years of dealing with it. Two days later I’m dying with pain! I’m guessing bc I can’t drain it anymore. Fuck me! 🥴
@@zjedinite garlic will sort it out
Are you kidding me I brush so well and this still happens
Thank a million. This was very informative. Nice personality too.
Interesting video. What if you already had a root canal?
You get a next 1
Is it safe to remove the tooth when there’s prevalent swelling or would they normally wait to treat with anti-bionics before extraction to prevent bacteria spreading
😲Antibiotics until infection calms
and Softsoap by Palmolive help alot
😲❤️🔥💖
Really good video. My complaint is, I established myself with a local cooperate dentist. I got an abscess. Called my dentist because the pain came on fast and was unbearable. They wouldn't take me in as an emergency but said they would get me in in two weeks! I called around trying to find another dentist to see me. No one would establish me as a new patient because they were so booked up and busy. I ended up driving 45 minutes to another small town to be seen by a new office of dentist to get help and spending $6000 out of pocket to deal with this.
You got it fixed right
Was it more than one tooth? Why did it cost so much? Just asking because I had to pay $1500 out of pocket for a root canal and crown.
@@MelModica Root canal can get infected. Crown need to be replaced too once in awhile
Should have gone to the ER
Dentist be ripping people off man. Be careful
Count how many times he didn’t say th cure and said the word “NASTY “
While laughing and esterical
The video starts at 3:33.
Sadly a lot of people don’t have the money to go to the dentist. Very expensive. Even with insurance
I have an abscess above my tooth because of lots of bad root canal work, even had n apecieotomy (cant spell it lol). Another wee op or removal is only way to treat it. Get it out is my advice, not worth it pain wise or financially 😔
Extraction is the way to go because root canals cap in the abscess and it never heals and root canals give deadly diseases by traveling through your tooth to your jaw to your skull to your heart, people die from these.
Root canals are toxic. How dare you recommend that
I’m In So much pain right now. The last 5 days have been very hard. Almost no sleep. The dentist said they don’t see an infection but when I was feeling around on my gums a little while ago I felt a spot that really got my attention near my wisdom tooth. It hurt but it ended up bleeding. My next dentist appointment isn’t until sept 28th ugh!
How did it went ?
How did it went ? & How are you now ?
I had two abscesses when I was in 2nd grade. If I pushed on the pimple, my mouth filled with fluid. After changing dentists, the abscesses was drained and my teeth were taken care of. I don't remember if the doctor prescribed anything. That was in the 1980's. The abscesses were in my baby teeth. One on each side of my lower jaw.
Oh great. I've a tooth that's chipped. I used Orajel Dental Gel Benzocaine 20% rapid toothache relief. To sooth it but it trapped something in the tooth and when i cleaned the infected tooth with a toothbrush it pinged off. Long story short. I had swelling felt sick. Had a Round hard lump underneath it and it was hot. It smelled bad in my mouth and used warm salt water to swill around my mouth that i spat out. I cleaned the tooth twice a day. Didn't see the pimple on my gum. I then treated it with a cold compress of ice in a plastic bag. It would hurt more if my mouth was open at night. Today the swelling has gone down but still a big lump underneath the big chewing tooth. I phoned a Hospital care line on sat and was told to call around my local dentist office's. They are all closed till Monday. ( With the pandemic ) there's a big backlog of dental appointments. So if i get seen i will probably have to pay for treatment. I thought it was getting better! As the swelling went down and the pain all but stopped. It's obviously not 😢 so if i can't get a dental appointment. I'm going to my ER room to get antibiotics and then get the tooth pulled out. I've had abscesses before but oh boy this one is 💥( owch ) I would recommend get a dentist appointment asap and don't let it get bad like i did
