Toothache

Toothache can feel sharp, throbbing, or worse with hot and cold foods and drinks. While over-the-counter pain relief can help you manage symptoms in the short term, a dentist is best placed to assess and treat the underlying cause. This Toothache category page brings together common pharmacy formats used for dental pain, including pain relief tablets, soluble (effervescent) tablets, oral suspensions, and selected pain relief gels.

WithAid is a UK based and regulated pharmacy, with orders sent by Royal Mail in discreet packaging and fast, free delivery on orders over £20. Always read the label and follow dosing directions carefully. If you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, buying for a child, taking regular medicines, or managing a long-term condition, ask a pharmacist or dental professional to help you choose a suitable option.

Popular types of toothache relief products

Most shoppers start with an oral pain relief option they can take safely and as directed, then choose the format that fits their routine. Tablets and soluble tablets are common choices for straightforward dosing, while oral suspensions can be a practical alternative if swallowing tablets is difficult (always follow age guidance and measure doses accurately). Some topical gels are designed for short-term, local use when applied exactly as the patient information leaflet describes. These options can support symptom control while you arrange dental care.

How to choose the right option

  • Check the active ingredient first: confirm what’s inside the product and whether it’s suitable for your age and health history.
  • Avoid ingredient duplication: do not take two products containing the same active ingredient (especially paracetamol), including some cold & flu remedies.
  • Consider interactions and warnings: some options are not suitable with certain conditions or medicines; read the pack carefully and ask a pharmacist if you’re unsure.
  • Choose a format you’ll use correctly: tablets, soluble tablets, oral suspensions and gels can suit different preferences and needs.
  • Keep use short term: follow pack directions for timing and maximum daily dose, and seek advice if symptoms persist, return, or worsen.

FAQs

What can I take for toothache relief?

Many people consider an over-the-counter option they can take safely and as directed, such as tablets, soluble tablets, an oral suspension, or a topical gel. Always read the label for age guidance, interactions, and maximum daily doses.

Do toothache products treat the cause of dental pain?

No. These products may help manage symptoms temporarily, but they do not treat the underlying cause of toothache. If pain persists, returns, or worsens, arrange a dental appointment.

How do I choose between tablets and soluble tablets?

Tablets are convenient for routine dosing. Soluble (effervescent) tablets dissolve in water, which some people prefer as a drinkable format. Choose the option you can take correctly and safely, following pack directions.

Can I use an oral suspension instead of tablets?

Oral suspensions can be a practical alternative if swallowing tablets is difficult. Follow the label’s age guidance and dosing instructions carefully, and use an accurate measuring spoon or syringe if provided.

When should I seek urgent dental or medical help?

Seek urgent advice if you have facial swelling, fever, pus, severe or escalating pain, trauma to the tooth or jaw, uncontrolled bleeding, or difficulty swallowing or breathing.

Can I use toothache relief products in pregnancy or while breastfeeding?

Not all pain relief options are suitable during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Read the label carefully and speak to a pharmacist, midwife, GP, or dentist before using any medicine.

Important: This page provides general guidance only and does not replace advice from a dentist, pharmacist, or GP. Always read the label and patient information leaflet, follow directions, and do not exceed the stated dose. If symptoms are severe, unusual, persistent, or you are concerned about swelling, fever, or breathing/swallowing difficulty, seek urgent help.
