TOOTHACHE
SYMPTOMS-One of your teeth hurts badly.
CAUSES-The primary couse is the "civilized" diet that we eat today. About 50 years ago. a dentist traveled around the world, visiting primitive people groups which never tasted our western diet. And he found that they had strong teeth and no cavities.
NATURAL REMEDIES
To stop a toothache, until you can see a dentist, here are several suggestion:
•Rinse your mouth vigorously with a mouthful of lukewarm water. If the pain is from food caught between the teeth.
•Stir 1 teaspoon of salt into a glassful of water, at body temperature. Swish warm saltwater in your mouth and split it out. Do this after meal and before retiring at night.
• Somewhat warm saltwater, held in the mouth, will bring relief.
•Oil of clove contains eugenol; this anesthetic, an antiseptic, is a poweful toothache reliever. Apply 1-2 drops of oil of cloves to the affected tooth with a cotton swab. If the oil seems too strong. dilute it with olive oil. Put the clove oil on the tooth. But do not swallow it.
