I know it sounds fooking horrible,,,but sometimes it works
altho take painkillers etc,,,tis all fine and dandy,,,but don't get right into the pain!! Get a tablet and eat it on the tooth,,,,,DONT water it down or just neck it, tastes like $hit for a lil bit yeah, but as soon as you've munch etc on it, it starts to get into where the pain is

trick from my dentist!!
The go and get a massive drink to wash away the rank taste,,,,lol
good luck tho,,,tooth ache is just the worse
