I am sure you will agree with me when I say that tooth pain is one of the most painful types of pain you can ever experience. Before I visit a dentist I always try to avoid the pain of a tooth ache and get tooth pain relief myself.



The worst feeling is the throbbing tooth in my mouth and the pain travels through my cheek and around my eye which is an awful pain. The result of this is that my eyes start to pound and it doesn’t matter which side of the mouth it is on. It can be said that the feeling is that of someone hitting a hammer over my head. Actually I sometimes want someone to hit my over the head as I am sure that pain will be less that the pain I am getting form this tooth.



As soon as I start to experience tooth pain I like to use oral jell. It is easy and quick to apply and can reduce the pain almost immediately. However if I don’t have any gel I may take a pain killer and put this straight onto the painful tooth to let the pill dissolve directly on the pain. I really don’t like the dentist so may also try Hydrocodone. I simply do not like going to the dentist. I don't like needles and in my opinion, all they want to do is patch the tooth and charge me a ton of money.




This brings me to the subject of dentists. Have you ever asked yourself why a dentist carries out his job in a certain manner? We all need our teeth so we can eat and chop our food up before we swallow, and we also need our teeth to look good for when we smile. Can you think of any other reasons?



Anyway, the usual procedure is you start having some tooth pain and you go to the dentist. You walk into the office and the desk personnel have you fill out paper work that looks like a rack of shelves at the library. My first thought is, "Man, I just need a tooth pulled out, I'm not trying to fix the United Stated Debt problem." You sit down to fill out the paper work and wonder how many tree had to die just so you can see the dentist and get that tooth pulled. Then you wait that painful, painful wait.



The first thing the dentist may do when you get into the chair is take an x-ray. Then more waiting and still in pain. After a couple of hours have passed, the dentist will call for you again to explain to you the best plan for treatment. They usually recommend that pulling the tooth out isn’t the best course of action at this stage and putting some silver over the tooth to patch up the hole is. They will also drill a little in your tooth to get the decay out. However, you will need to go home for now and take some anti – biotics in order to get rid of the abscessed that is forming. The dentist will say make another appointment for a week or so and he / she will carry out the work they have suggested on your bad tooth.




On the way out you will then be told about all the charges you will have to pay for your visits. They will probable read something like this - $50 appointment, $75 bill for the room and $100 for the ex-ray.



When you return for your next visit, the dentist will begin to do the work he suggested on the first visit. He will get some silver and patch up the hole that he drilled in your mouth. The only concern I have with this method is that several months from now you will be back in the chair as the piece of silver he is putting in will have fallen out whilst you were eating your favorite meal. Do you think the dentist will get frustrated as his work has failed? No, because it is never their fault. The dentist will just carry out his work – but this time may decide to pull the tooth out and yes you guessed it – charge you for the whole procedure which should have been done the first time you went to see him.



Because dentists can only do a certain amount of work per day, they sometimes don’t always have your best interest at heart. Having your best interest at heart may not always be the most profitable so if they can, they may put off doing the correct work for you the get your tooth pain relief.



Unfortunately, tooth pain relief is not what a dentist always looks for first in a patient. Why would they want to solve the pain for good by pulling the tooth out, when they can keep the tooth in and creating more visits to them and more billing. This will create better income for them so it may be down to you to find your own tooth pain relief.
