Dental pain: First, i would strongly consider seeing the dentist (or another dentist) sooner. If it is really that bad, it might well get worse and flare up during the night when no dentist or pain medication will be available to keep you comfortable. Short of that, take advil, aleve, (naproxen) Motrin or what you would normally take for a headache. Sorry, but no magic potions available.
