A member asked:
Which is best to take for a toothache. tylenol, (acetaminophen) advil, or aleve?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Seek treatment: A toothache shouldn't be ignored. A dentist should check your mouth and recommend a treatment. As a temporary palliative for pain, advil or aleve (naproxen) would be the most effective.
