Problems with your teeth, No money to fix them, Oragel isn't enough?

Hi, Zuke I did tell everyone who had question that all they had to do is ask and I would do my best to try to give some advice on what to use and how to use it effectively to help with things just like this! So you say your tooth hurts, I'm assuming that Either you don't like oragel or its hasn't helped take away the pain. Your in luck!! I do have some ideas and ways you can treat yourself and hold you over until you can afford to see the dentist.

Now I'm not a dentist but there are a few herbs that are useful with tooth pain and tooth infection, and you can find these common herbs at your local bulk herb store or online and maybe in your local food stores as well. 

Well here it is there are two that i can think of off the top of my head one is called Myrrh and the other is Fragrant Valerian. before I tell you how you can use these in your body I would like to tell you what each of them can be used for OK and I have to stress that you follow the instructions completely and any warnings or limitations I will clearly state!

Myrrh:  Description: Is the aromatic, gummy substance exuded by certain trees and shrubs growing in east Africa and Arabia and can be found in an herb dealers stock
Uses: It can be used as an antiseptic, astringent, carminative, and the stomic. It also makes a wonderful gargle  and mouth wash for sores in the mouth, throat, sore teeth, and gums. It can also be used for coughs, asthma, and other chest problems. It can be taken internally for bad breath, loose teeth, and week gums, its a disinfectant, so it can also be used as a douch.

Fragrant Valerian:  Description: Is a perennial plant about 2 to 4 feet high, which has escaped form cultivation to inhibit roadsides and thickets from New England to Jersey and popular in Europe. Its has a yellow-brow rootstock and produces a hollow, angular, furrowed stem  with opposite, pinnate leaves which have from 7 to 25 lanceolate, sharply serrate leaflets. with either rose colored or reddish and some times white, flowers. Appearing between June to August But can also be bought at an herb dealer
Uses: Antispasmodic, calmative, hypnotic,nervine. Fragrant Valerian is useful for all sorts of nervous conditions, migraines, and insomnia. its also helpful for hysteria, neurasthenia, fatigue, and stomic cramps that cause vomiting.  USE CAUTION large doses or extended use may produce symptoms of poisoning. Take the tea twice a day for NO MORE THAN TWO TO THREE WEEKS AT A TIME. The tea can also be used as an enema for pinworms and externally as a wash for sores and pimples.


Ok now that you have some information on what I'm suggesting and your more than welcome to look this up if your not quite sure, I will not be offended, ok now the reason I suggested the Valerian is because it works great for pain and if your having problems with your teeth depending on wheather or not your tooth is really bad or just annoying (like if your tooth is broken and the nerve is exposed this would be helpful) Next I will offer you the instructions on how to use these ok.

Myrrh: You will need a mortar and pedestal or a grinder of some kind because this usually comes in resin form and it needs to be a fine powder to be used right.  What you will need to do is take a small resin ball from the bag you bought from the herb store (about a teaspoon grinded)  and grind this up and then pour it into an 8 ounce cup, boil water about a 1/4 cup. When boiling add the water to the grinded Myrrh and stir well for about 2 minutes, take in small mouth fulls and gargle for 30 seconds and spit the wash out and repeat until your 1/4 glass is gone. This can also be repeted several times a day but i would not go over 8 times in one day. The gargle will help to pull any infection you may or may not have in your tooth as well as help with tempery pain.

Fragrant Valerian: USE ONLY FRESH ROOT STOCK!!  This can be taken two ways in a tea. You may make an infusion by Steeping (soaking rootstock in boiled water immediately after its removed from heat, covered for about 10 minutes, strain) 1 tsp of rootstock in 1 pint of boiling water, TAKE COLD! 1 CUP over the course of the day or when your going to bed.
The other way you can use this is by COLD EXTRACT, to do this you would use 2tsp rootstock in one cup of water and let it stand for 24 HOURS  then strain the root out of the extract and take 1/2 cup to 1 cup when going to bed. I would recommend that if you decide to use this rout then you should take it when going to bed due to the drowsy effects of this herb. I have used this before and form my experiences this is highly effective and reduces pain in less than an hour and keeps pain a bay for quite some time even with only one use, the side effect is sleepiness and will probably creep up on you in about 30 minutes or less so don't take it and drive ok!

Well zuke I hope this information was helpful and if you do use this let me know how it helped you ok. To any one elts that has question ask away  I'm here to help!!
