Question 1

is excedrin good for tooth pain?

Accepted Answer

Excedrin: It can be used for all types of pain.

Question 2

excedrin migraine help with tooth pain ?

Accepted Answer

It should: Just about any over the counter pain reliever had the potential benefit of pain reduction during a tooth ache.   Be aware however, that moderate or severe tooth pain rarely responds appreciably to pain medications,  even the most potent kinds.   Having the tooth treated  appropriately may be the only predictable mode if relief.

Question 3

i took 2 extra strength excedrin 3 hours ago, but the pain is back and worse than before (tooth ache). the dosage says i can't take more for 3 more ho?

Accepted Answer

Better Idea: Get that tooth evaluated ASAP. Long holiday weekend coming up. The severe pain can become unbearable pain in a very short time. The tooth obviously needs attention, and now. All the best...

Question 4

extreme tooth ache and excedrin migraine is the only thing that  will stop the pain, how often can u really take this med? it said 24 hour  help!

Accepted Answer

See your dentist: You can continue taking the Excedrin for pain.  But see your dentist asap to be treated.

Question 5

i am 11 weeks pregnant and took two excedrin for a tooth ache and still bothering me would it hurt to take tylenol (acetaminophen) to?

Accepted Answer

Excedrin: should not be taken during pregnancy since it contains aspirin which if you were to bleed my cause increased bleeding.  Tylenol (acetaminophen) is the drug of choice for pain or fever in pregnancy so yes to the Tylenol (acetaminophen).

Question 6

does excedrin really work for a toothache?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: It is probably the acetaminophen and the aspirin in excedrin that help the toothache. if you don't have acetaminophen or ibuprofen around, I suppose you could try excedrin.

Question 7

excruciating tooth pain! help what could it be?

Accepted Answer

See Dentist: Take 1 regular Aspirin + 1 regular tylenol (acetaminophen) along with an antibiotic (like amoxicillin) and get to the dentist that can do extractions asap.  They may suggest a root canal treatment or an extraction.  However this infection that you have needs to be dealt with now or it will spread.

Question 8

can sinusitis cause tooth pain?

Accepted Answer

Yes: There are only 2 layers of cells separating your maxillary sinuses from your upper molar root tips. If you have sinusitis you may have sore feet. Sit down, lean forward and put your face between your knees. If pressure/pain noticeably increases, it's probably a sinus problem. If so, see your PCP or Urgent Care. If not, see your Dentist.

Question 9

why does bleaching cause tooth pain?

Accepted Answer

Reasons: Teeth are made up of a hard outer layer(enamel) and a softer layer underneath (dentin). Dentin has nerves and when exposed becomes sensitive. Whitening temporarily makes the enamel more permeable and microscopically exposes the dentin. Also the trays used in whitening can put pressure on the teeth which can cause them to become sore.

Question 10

extraction tooth pain after 1 month?

Accepted Answer

Not normal: Please return to the General Dentist or specialist Oral Surgeon that treated you. That practitioner is responsible for your post-surgical care. Hopefully this will not be difficult to resolve.
