Dear XXXXXX,
Thank you for the query. Please note only painkiller may not relieve the tooth pain. The causative factor for the tooth pain needs to be addressed. For tooth pain it is better to visit the dentist get examined regarding the source of tooth pain get the proper prescription of tablets and necessary treatment. Without knowing the history of allergy, medical history it is difficult to prescribe any tablet. However till you XXXXXXX the dentist, if you are NOT ALLERGIC to 'Piroxicam' then you can take Tab.Ugesic 20 Mg. Keep 2 Tab.Ugesic below the tongue, it dissolves on its own, no need to swallow. If Ugesic is not available, then take Tab. Dolonex DT 20 Mg and swallow 2 tablets together. This cannot be treatment, you must visit dentist at the earliest for further treatment. Only once today you can take the tab today. There may be necessary of antibiotics which may be prescribed by tour dentist.

Happy regards,
