If the pain is in the upper jaw, press thumb into the area near where the jaw
hinges, under the cheekbone. Explore with your thumb for the place that brings the most immediate relief. Place the thumb of one hand where the thumb bone of  the other hand meets the index finger bone. Rub in small circles for one  minute, do as many times as needed on both hands.

Chew gum or bite down on a hard pretzel. This will help the tooth break through sooner than it normally would. If the pain is sharp and pulsing, then try applying cold packs to the face. Anytime it's a dull aching pain, try applying  hot packs to the area.

FOR GUM PAIN RELIEF

Put a teaspoon of sea salt (found at health food stores) in a cup of hot water  
and swish some around in your mouth and spit out. Repeat every hour. If pain  persists, see your dentist.

for three minutes or longer whenever you want to feel calmer.

Wise Tips

Many of the traditional herbal healers were the wise women, living in villages, who commanded great respect and not a little fear, because of their healing powers. The rise of allopathic medicine and its use of inorganic chemical was accompanied by the systematic disparagement of the woman's powers to heal using natural herbs and other plants. During the 17th century many women were ultimately commended as witches, tried by mob, and burned at the stake for drowned, for practicing natural herbal medicine. That's all behind us now, thankfully. Although a certain stigma is attached to alternative medicine, and those who practice it, traditional remedies from Western culture and beyond are becoming increasingly accepted as valuable by the mainstream practitioners of our health service.
