What are alternatives to painkillers if i have really bad toothaches and sensitive teeth?

See a dentist: The pain could be indicative of multiple potential dental problems, so do not ignore it and please see a dentist. However, for general sensitivity, sensodyne toothpase or mi paste work effectively.
