home remedies for toothache

[Dominguito]

Any home remedies for toothache? I've been told that chewing garlic is a great home remedy... but it's just so disgusting!

Common causes of toothache include dental cavity and gum disease. Instead of self medicating or trying remedies that do not have approved therapeutic claims, I think it's best to consult with a dentist for more effective solutions.
