    tooth aches can be caused by a bacteria entering into an open area in the enamel caused by a cavity.the area becomes inflamed and the swelling causes the pain. It may also have extended to the root. In any event it must be addressed by a dentist and be permanently corrected. My husband uses this when his cracked tooth becomes infected and he gets tooth aches. A quick fix for a tooth ache we have found to work 100% is by using oil of oregano. do your research on line. this oil gets rid of bacterial infections, fungal infections, parasites and many other things. But use caution and remember it must be diluted first as it is very strong and will burn your skin if you don't dilute it. you dilute it 1/2 & 1/2 with either extra virgin olive oil or grape seed oil. keep it in the fridge and when you get sick use a dropper full like 3 times a day for a couple days. it's great for colds and flu's. Be sure to always check with your physician first because you may be allergic to it and this could be dangerous, or if you are taking other medications it may not chemically mix. It also interferes with the absorption of iron.Best thing to do ..have a dentist clean and fill the cavity so you have no more problems. take care and stay well. The men upstairs have big plans for you still. =)
