First Aid for Toothache Relief

Thyme

Thyme has strong antibacterial and antioxidant properties that can help treat toothaches. If it is a case of tooth decay, thyme can help fight the bacteria that contribute to it.

To apply this remedy, dilute thyme essential oil to a carrier oil and then apply it to the affected area. You can also add a drop of the oil to a glass of water and use it to rinse your mouth.

Guava leaves

Guava leaves have anti-inflammatory properties that can help heal wounds. They also have an antimicrobial activity that can aid in oral care. They are usually used as an ingredient in most oral care products [4].

To apply this remedy, chew on fresh guava leaves or add crushed guava leaves to boiling water and use them to make a mouthwash.
