    hot salt water mouthwash is recommended for painful erupting and infected wisdom teeth too.

    Thanks Linda

    The tooth has broken even more since it rubbed, so there isnt much of it left above the gum really now (i cant wait to have that out....oww :eek:.

    I'm finding it impossible to rest it, it's very sore to talk, and I cant avoid talking in my job :rolleyes:

    It hurts :(

    ALSO- The other problem with Bonjela is that it contains a slight anaesthetic which will numb the area bringing temporary relief.
    The problem with this is that while it feels numb you won't feel that your causing more trauma!
    At least when you feel it you can tell if you're catching the area and stop!

    It's like when you chew your cheek or lip after a local anaesthetic at the dentist and then when the feeling comes back you're in incredible pain!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Spud, when Ryan was about 3 he had...errr....is it hand foot and mouth that gives you spots and ulcers?

    Anyway I took him to the pharmacy and they gave him this weird mouth ulcer stuff that you put on and it's like a waxy paste, and it forms a barrier (it feels really weird when you put it on, but it stays on for quite a long time, much longer than you would expect).

    I am trying to think what it was called.......Adcortyl in Orobase or something really weird like that.

    He was crying in pain and it was the only thing that helped. Couldn't even get near him with Bonjela, it was just too painful to apply.

    and that was wrong? He's only concerned for your wellbeing and wants you to be free of pain.
    and he probably has the same cure for a headache that I promote.;)
    :D:D stay wonky :D:D
