During waiting for medical treatment from a dentist, there were ways to reduce toothache and gum problems:
Put 2-3 drops of clove oil on the gum next to the tot or suck a dried clove, holding the flower bud as close as possible to the painful tooth. Oil can be put also on a cotton swab and hold it against the gum. In the same way above, you can use peppermint oil
For a filling that has come out, make a firm paste from slippery elm powder and water and put it in the hole until a dentist can fill the cavity properly. After extractions, take arnica 6x tablets two to three times daily for two to three days and use a mouth rinse made from sage infusion (1 teaspoon of herb to a cup of boiling water) with a pinch of salt as often as possible.
Bleeding gums can be eased by mouth washes of sage, marigold, or eyebright infusion; use 2 teaspoons to a cup of water and rinse the mouth thoroughly every two to three hours. Add a pinch of salt to the mixture to increase the antiseptic effect.
Persistent gum problems need professional help as they may eventually cause teeth to loosen and fall out.
