Those little rocks in our head are sure a lot of trouble.

When I was a kid we would put an aspirin right on the gum nearest to the toothache. That helped some because aspirin interferes with the body sending pain messages to the brain.

But you can't just keep doing it, because the aspirin burns the skin around your gum after a while.

As far as natural antibiotics go, a Golden Seal and Echinacea combination helps, as they are naturally curative in that area. The Echinacea works through your immune system but is only effective for ten days before the body builds up a resistance and it is less effective.

I recently used this Golden Seal and Echinacea for an abscess and found it somewhat helpful in keeping it in check until I could see my dentist, who just happened to be in Africa. Cheez, that's even worse than a tooth ache on Friday.

Good luck with your aching tooth. This morning I was reading some of Dr. Guyenet's writings about teeth problems being caused by modern diets. He has a blog at:

I have to agree with what he says. I avoid eating grains and sugary foods, and as a result my teeth have never been better. and my dentist used to make a good living off of me!
