15 Ways for Tooth Abscess Pain Relief

Garlic

Garlic is naturally loaded with allicin, a potent antibacterial element that can provide many therapeutic uses such as killing bacteria and managing pain. Thus, you can compress raw garlic cloves to get rid of harmful bacteria in your mouth and alleviate pain caused by an abscessed tooth. To try this remedy, you should crush a fresh garlic clove, then mix with a little bit of salt to make a paste. Rub this paste on the affected area. You can also chew the clove to get similar results. Do not leave the clove inside your mouth for too long because it would result in a burn injury. This could be repeated many times a day. [3]
