Who knows what to do for a tooth ache?

I have a killer tooth ache. I have already been to the dentist and he gave me vicodin and penicillin. Started them today, but it's not even close to killing the pain. Does anyone out there have any suggestions how to deaden the pain a little more?

Rub Bacardi 151 on your gum surrounding the infected tooth. It will numb it way longer than orajel.

Maybe you should try munching on betel leaves, clove- These are natural and could lessen the pain.
