While it\u2019s usually recommended that they be extracted at some point, you may encounter some time in between their arrival and removal where they can cause some discomfort. While your dentist in West Orange is always happy to help alleviate your pain, there are also some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.colgate.com\/en\/us\/oc\/oral-health\/conditions\/wisdom-teeth\/article\/wisdom-teeth-pain-relief-how-to-find-comfort-0515\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">steps you can take at home<\/a> to eliminate discomfort from your wisdom teeth until it\u2019s time to take them out.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>A Cold Compress<\/h2>\n<p>Use a cold compress to help reduce swelling and pain. Wrap a towel around an ice pack or bag of frozen peas and apply your compress for ten-minute intervals. Do ten minutes on, ten minutes off as long as needed to ease discomfort.<\/p>\n<h2>Salt Water Rinse<\/h2>\n<p>Create your own warm salt-water rinse to alleviate pain. Use boiling water to dissolve a couple tablespoons of salt. When the mixture cools, rinse your mouth with it. Salt water immediately relieves discomfort and also helps to kill bacteria.<\/p>\n<h2>Ibuprofen or Other Over-the-Counter Relief<\/h2>\n<p>You can definitely use ibuprofen or any other pain relief choices to eliminate discomfort from your wisdom teeth. Just be sure to follow correct dosages and instructions carefully.<\/p>\n<h2>Use a Numbing Gel<\/h2>\n<p>Numbing gels can provide relief from aching wisdom teeth. Choose a gel with benzocaine and apply it directly to your incoming tooth. Be aware that eating or chewing when you\u2019re numb could lead to accidental injuries to your cheek or tongue.<\/p>\n<h2>Apply Clove Oil to Your Tooth<\/h2>\n<p>Use a whole clove or clove oil applied directly to your tooth. Keep the clove intact, don\u2019t crush or break it, and keep it in your mouth until you feel a numbing sensation.<\/p>\n<h2>Contact D&amp;G Dental<\/h2>\n<p>While you may be able to stave off wisdom tooth discomfort on your own for a while, it\u2019s important to have your third molars evaluated by your family dentist in West Orange.
