10 Home Remedies for Toothaches
Toothache Home Remedy #4: Onion
Similar to garlic, onion has some antimicrobial and antiseptic properties. It can kill some of the bacteria causing infection in the mouth and also bring down the inflammation. This can lead to a reduction in toothache pain. Onion is also used as a home remedy for other conditions like colds and respiratory congestion.
To use onion for toothache pain, you can chew or suck on a piece of it for several minutes, making sure to keep the juice near the affected area. Alternatively, chop a small onion into small pieces and place some of it on the affected area and leave it on for about five minutes. Discard and rinse with warm water.
