I can't go see a dentist until January, so, in the meantime i rinse my mouth out as well as i can, then break up a Tylenol and put it in that hole. It gives a little bit of relief for a few, but,.. owies.
All that to say, i feel owies. lol not lol

Aww, so sorry for the owies. I don't have anything to add to what Gemme advised, except if you can't get any Anbesol right away a little Jim Beam can help. (You may have noticed in my other posts that Jim Beam is my go-to; I'm not kidding, it really can help. Or whatever other whiskey you happen to prefer.) I hope you can get in with your dentist soon, and until then I hope you get your symptoms under control. Owies during the holidays are especially no fun.
