Home remedies that can help tooth infection along with antibiotics other than salt water thing? in terms of food..... thanks

Consult Dentist: Do not fool around with tooth infection and better consult your Dentist asap as you may not only need treatment but may need to treat underlying cause of infection

Regarding food: Soft, bland diet. Allow the antibiotics time to work. Be patient. Feel better soon....

Tooth infection: Have you seen a dentist? and did the dentist treat you? prescribe the antibiotics? Resolution of tooth infection requires treating the cause and your body's healing powers over time. Antibiotics and salt water rinses may help the the results are not immediate. Your overall health and possible medical conditions also may play a role. You should discuss this with the dentist actually treating you!

See a dentist ASAP: Any other treatment like NSAIDs or Tylenol (acetaminophen) OTC, antibiotics is a temporary relief.The tooth infection you speak of can may spread to your jaw and to other areas of your head and neck. I would strongly encourage you to seek treatment at your dentist ASAP since those complications can occur at anytime. Take a good care.

Infection: i hope you are being treated by a dentist. Antibiotics alone will not fix an abscesses tooth. A healthy diet will help your body fight the infection. The good news is that the antibiotics will take effect in about a day so you will start to feel better soon. Follow the treatment recommendations of your dentist. Good luck

Telephone: The only thing that is going to work is to have the tooth physically treated, so call your Dentist who may want to refer you to a root canal specialist (Endodontist) or an extraction specialist (Oral Surgeon. Antibiotic will limit spread of infection as long as you'real taking it, but not after you stop. So call your Dentist now.

Tooth Infection: Good day Michael; Home remedies are not indicated nor the use of antibiotics for tooth infection. Go to the dentist! Oral infections can cause abscesses and a cellulitis. As an intern, I've seen patients who exhibited tooth infections that have broken through their cheeks. Another instance of a tooth infection, causing the eye to close! I'll assist you in finding a convenient DDS.

Professional Care: Looking for shortcuts with home remedies is not in your best interest to help your tooth infection. Know that antibiotics do not immediately stop the discomfort. It may take 2-3 days for some relief. Analgesics do not treat the problem. Proper follow-up care by your dentist is the best way you can help yourself.
