Not Excedrin: Excedrin contains caffeine so it may make it harder to get to sleep. You could use the others I would recommend the ibuprofen plus tylenol = acetominophen

No: Don't mix NSAIDS such as ibuprofen aspirin and acetaminophen. They can cause serious problems and won't do more for your pain than the ibuprofen alone. If the mouth pain does not go away or is getting worse, see your dentist.
