Cold Compress
Another simple way to alleviate your abscess tooth sensation is to place crushed ice or an ice cube on the affected area. In most cases, this is effective in reducing numbs and inflammation around your tooth. Also, you could crush ice and put it into a dry towel or a balloon. Tie off one part and put it on your painful area as a compress. A free slice of foods such as potato, cucumber, bananas, apples, grapes, guava, pineapple, or mango can also provide the same benefits. You can use the compress for every 15 minutes and repeat multiple times each day. [6]
