OTC pain meds: The pain meds will mask the symptoms until you get to a dentist to have your problems treated. Unfortunately, dentistry is not a do it yourself profession. The sooner you call the sooner you will feel better and the better chance you will have to save your teeth.

Good oral hygiene: The best home remedy for tooth and gum pain is good oral home care. Whenever there is pain, there is inflammation of which fluid is collected and cannot drain, ultimately pressing on the nerve. Brushing, will help drain the fluid. Brushing will stop the bleeding of the gum as well. Salt water rinse will help. Gum massage will also help.
