peanut butter for toothache

UnanimousAnonymous · 30-09-2009, 10:21 PM

yes, i know what you are thinking...not going to work right?

i have been in agony all evening and i had tried everything i could think of...salt water, alcohol, painkillers, none worked.

i googled in home remedies and found something about peanut butter. put it on the tooth and the pain will be gone apparently.

i tried it as i was desperate and it has actually worked! Im not kidding... and it tastes good (well, it would if i didnt have the taste of saltwater and mouthwash still lingering)

so im keeping the jar of peanut butter by my bed

just wanted to share so that others could try it if they needed to.

Cloves are supposed to work:

That's so cool! I'll remember it next time I have toothache.
I'm actually eating peanut butter right now as I type this xD

yeah i need to get some... i know they work from when i had a tooth ache a few years ago but the shops are all shut >.<

Eww, is that what cloves actually look like?

Maybe peanut butter and chocolate spread would work too...

im very happy i found out about it, i was in tears because it was so painful

How weird. That's cool though.

Clove oil is good, not sure about actual cloves, lol.

If you get some one to kick you really hard in the shin the toothache pain will go away too.

^ but only because you'll be focusing on the new pain in your shin. After a while, they'll both hurt.

Ok so this is guna sound so weird but I'm in agony..
How exactly did you apply the peanut butter? did you like eat it or smooth it over the tooth?
Glad it helped!!

Happy Bear, you just put it over the tooth. and keep it there, obviously you are going to have to put more on after a while but it really helped me

Does it matter if it's smooth or crunchy?

UnanimousAnonymous · 01-10-2009, 05:19 PM

if you have a cavity, i would say smooth, you dont want a bit of peanut getting in there

I.Heart.And · 01-10-2009, 05:21 PM

it hurt to read that.

Shadowsaurus · 01-10-2009, 06:49 PM
