Neither: See a dentist and don't depend on pills. Pain will be there when pills wear off.

The best medicine : is to see your dentist for proper diagnosis, x-ray and treatment. However, the best OTC painkillers for toothache are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) because they are both pain relievers.You can use them only for the short period of time for temporary pain relief. Please call your dentist today.

DDS: Dental pain means dental disease. See DDS. In the meantime, tramadol probably stronger.

Dental treatment: Toothache usually means spreading infection. Pain killers (tramadol probably stronger) will only dull pain as infection continues to spread. Please call your Dentist.
