toothache remedies If you got a boot to the head (or a fist, or a car accident — you get the picture) and that’s why your tooth hurts, you may need to skip the dentist and go directly to the ER. If the tooth is knocked completely out or if there’s bleeding you can’t stop, go to the emergency department. If your tooth is loose, broken or pushed out of position, call the dentist.For a toothache due to an injury, put an ice pack on the outside of the mouth near the painful tooth. Remember when using ice not to put ice directly on skin and to hold the ice pack on the skin for no more than 20 minutes.
