Wisdom teeth usually begin to emerge between the ages of 17 and 21. While healthy wisdom teeth don’t usually cause a lot of pain, they can be bothersome.
Wisdom tooth pain – MC Dental top five tips:
- Try a warm saltwater rinse. Warm saltwater will help ease moderate wisdom tooth pain without the use of medications. Just swish the solution in your mouth for 30 seconds and spit. Be careful not to swallow the saltwater.
- Try chewing gum on the side where you’re experiencing pain. Chewing gum will gently massage the painful area and may offer some temporary relief.
- Use a numbing agent. Oral numbing medications can be bought over-the-counter at most pharmacies, discount department stores, and supermarkets. Apply a small amount to the affected area to numb the site for up to 30 minutes at a time.

If you have other medical conditions or are taking other medications, consult your doctor before taking any over-the-counter medication to avoid harmful drug interactions.
