Teething

[BowsAndRibbons]

I'm pretty sure my wisdom teeth are (finally) coming in. My mouth hurts, I'm drooling a ton, and I want to chew on everything. I am certainly not a baby, but I feel like I've regressed almost 20 years, and I don't like it. Is there any way I can make this better?

Clove oil. Or just bite down on a whole clove. Works better than any of those teething gels.

Second the clove oil vote. Also, ginger root (just chew a piece of ginger you get from the store), camomile (the tea? I'm not sure - maybe just the herb), mint oil.

I feel your pain, I have been stubborn and put off having my wisdom teeth pulled, which is needed. Now it can be fine for months and then rather uncomfortable for a day or for days at a time. If they need to be pulled get it done sooner than later. I wish I had lol

Careful with Clove oil- if you get any on your tongue or gums it burns like a blowtorch (but if it eases the other pain sometimes it's worth it )

when my wisdom teeth started coming in about 8 years ago, i discovered why babies cry when teething.

I assume you are talking peppermint oil, as opposed to wintergreen or spearmint, right?

mhmm, 100% pure peppermint oil. says it in big enough letters on the bottle
