How To Treat The Pain Of The Cavities In My Teeth?

I have two enormous cavities in my teeth. The pain of one of them can only be relieved with cold water, while nothing ever works for the other. I've even tried tramadol, let alone multiple NSAID's. It will be a week or so before I can see my dentist. How can I manage the pain?

Hello, Thank you for consulting with HCM.
As you are mentioning that you are having cavities in you teeth and now you are experiencing pain , it looks that now the infection has spread to the pulp (blood supply), so now you have to go for root canal treatment in the tooth.
So till you visit your dentist you can start with one pain killer as Diclomol twice daily and one antibiotic Novamox twice daily as it will solve your problem.
Hope it will help you.
