What medication to take for a wobbly and painful tooth

Wobbly and painful teeth may be caused by periodontitis, apical periodontitis, osteomyelitis of the jaws, etc. You can take painkillers to relieve pain and anti-inflammatory drugs to relieve inflammation, while combining with the appropriate treatments, such as periodontal treatment, root canal treatment, surgical treatment, etc., as follows. 1. Take painkillers, such as ibuprofen, diclofenac sodium, etc., which can relieve tooth pain. Taking anti-inflammatory drugs, such as metronidazole, tinidazole, etc., can control the development of inflammation. Medications should be used under a doctor’s supervision. 2. Drugs usually cannot eliminate the lesion completely. If it is periodontitis, perfect periodontal sequence treatment should be carried out; if it is apical periodontitis, root canal treatment should be carried out, and when the pus is confined, it should be incised and drained; if it is osteomyelitis of the jawbone, the diseased tooth and the neighboring loose tooth should be extracted and the pus should be drained. It is recommended to go to the hospital to receive professional treatment.
