Last night, I woke up around midnight with this sharp, stabbing pain in my tooth. You know that kind of pain that makes you question every candy bar you've ever eaten? Yeah, that one. Anyway, it got me thinkingβimagine you're stuck in some remote cabin or something, no dentist for miles, and your tooth decides to stage a rebellion right then and there. What would you even do? Would you try some DIY dentistry or just tough it out till morning? Curious how you'd handle it...
Been there, done thatβit's the worst. Honestly, I'd skip the DIY dentistry (too risky) and go straight for pain management. Ever tried clove oil? Tastes awful, but it numbs the pain surprisingly well. If that's not an option, rinsing with warm salt water or holding ice against your cheek can help dull the ache till morning. Learned that the hard way after a weekend camping trip turned into a toothache nightmare...
