I had my left lower wisdom tooth removed last week. All was well until I noticed that there was no clot! I had heard about dry sockets and remembered when my Dad had it... Well I remember him saying how painful it was, anyway. So today I was unable to get the pain under control. NOTHING was working. So I hopped on here and read about the sliced garlic cloves... WOW!!! After some intense burning and drooling, IT WORKED!!! That was about an hour ago! I still have some residual soreness but NO PAIN! I simply sliced a clove and put it in my mouth at the source of pain for several minutes and VIOLA'. THANK YOU EARTH CLINIC!!!

The fresh garlic did work, but it made a very bad sore in that area and hurts badly. Had to do more damage control with meds for canker sore.

Next time when faced with a tooth pain try half a tsp. of grey celtic salt. You will have to find out how much or little you need to keep against the offending site, internally. My face was already swollen but in about three minutes the pain was gone and I persuaded throughout the night. That was two months ago, no recurrence. I also do oil pulling every morning for years. If the salt leaves a burning sensation, reduce the amount. Give it a try.
