Northrend   10 #27 Posted October 11, 2010 When I get tooth ache I get some of those Anadin dissolvable tablets. 2 of them knock the pain right out for hours.  I have some I think.. But your probably sorted now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

AGB1 Â Â 10 #31 Posted October 11, 2010 Unfortunately not much to be done at A&E...generally you'll get some co-codamol and sent on your way to ring the emergency dentist the next day. In theory doctors aren't meant to diagnose and treat dental problems, just as dentists don't treat medical problems. Saying that, you can't see a dentist in the middle of the night! Thank you for not dialling 999 as many do with toothache and then expecting a free taxi home too! Grrrr! Hope it gets sorted asap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

rubydazzler   11 #36 Posted October 11, 2010 I'm scared now having read the link Edna put up. I've had an intermittant gum ache and swelling for a couple of weeks since I went to the dentist, was just hoping that with copious bonjela and painkillers it would go away, but now after reading that, am off to see them again today ...  Hope the patient is feeling better this morning!
