Dental 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. FOR INCOMING WISDOM TOOTH PAIN 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. USE THESE TWO TECHNIQUES WHILE IN THE DENTIST'S CHAIR TO REDUCE ANXIETY. Use before and during dental work. Locate the most tender spot in the web of the right or left hand thumb, and squeeze firmly with the thumb on top and the forefinger on bottom for 3 mins. Hold the ring and little finger of either hand for three minutes or longer whenever you want to feel calmer.
