After being in pain from Friday till Sunday night, painkillers weren't helping much at all, I was in agony non stop throbbing in gum, did the wet tea bag and the pain relief was immense, the swelling went down and the pain stayed away till I managed to get to the dentist for treatment, thank you

You might also want to use this method (and drink) with white tea bags. Studies show that in as little as 2 hours, white tea kills 99% of Staphlococcus and Streptococcus bacteria. It's said to be much more effective than green and/or black tea. [Green tea stimulates the immune system so it would appear to be a good idea to drink both teas]. White tea also slowed the growth of bacteria that cause pneumonia and cavities in teeth. Source: WebMD (I heard about the white tea studies on the news and Googled it).
