Discomfort Following Dental Treatment

Discomfort following dental treatment is usually caused by injury (perhaps to a nerve) or bruising around the tooth that has been worked on. This may occur immediately after treatment, or pain may follow initial discomfort after an anesthetic has worn off. There may also be some blood loss. Persistent pain following treatment may signal infection.

TREATMENT

Traditional Home and Folk Remedies 
Oil of clove or macerated cloves can be applied to the area to prevent infection, reduce the inflammation and prevent discomfort.

Homeopathy 
Arnica should be taken immediately after treatment, every hour for up to 10 doses. Ruta, for infections after teeth have been removed. Phosphorus, for bleeding after a tooth has been extracted. Take every 10 minutes for 1 hour. Hypericum, for pain occurring after treatment. Ledum, for pain after an injection.

Flower Essences
Rescue Remedy or Emergency Essence will help to reduce the effects of trauma, and encourage the healing process.
