not recommended: Nyquil caps may diminish the pain a bit and possibly help you sleep, but you are treating the symptoms and not the source. If there is infection present, the caps will merely mask your greater issue. Try and see a dentist asap.

Sure...: I do not think this is going to get rid of a toothache. Tooth that is waking you at night might need a root canal treatment. You might want to contact your dentist early in the morning.
