You can try some simple methods at home to relieve toothache in children:
Gargle with salt water: Add half a teaspoon of salt to a glass of warm water and have your child gargle with this mixture. This can help reduce the pain.
Cold compress: You can apply a cold compress to the side of the aching tooth. You can use an ice pack wrapped in a thin cloth.
Brushing and flossing: Brushing your teeth well and using dental floss can help remove food residue and plaque from between your teeth.
Painkillers: Painkillers in appropriate doses can also be used for children. However, you should definitely consult a doctor about this.
Clove oil: You can drop a small amount of clove oil on a cotton ball and gently apply it to the painful area. This method can temporarily relieve the pain.
If the toothache persists, you should definitely see a dentist. It may be helpful to provide details such as the time of onset and severity of the complaint in terms of diagnosis.
