text: i have tootache and ther is an hole already in it., is there any medication aside tooth extraction?   have u gotten urself checked by a dentist? x-ray will show the extent of infection in ur tooth....no medicines will work since regardless of the xtent of infection, damage is definitely there as is obvious from ur symptoms. but xtraction is the last thing, it may be saved by root canal therapy, though u need to strt tht at the earliest. after the same, ur tooth can b capped nd thus restored bak to health. 2ndly, plz dnt use clove oil nd such home remedies...it will do harm rather than good.
