TeaDidikai Taliah Are there any certain brands or types that you would say work better than others? Thanks for the info, I'm sure he'll appreciate it too once we get him set up. ^_^ I'd buy the freshest straight-black teabags you can find with a very fine mesh- like Stash uses.
Seconded. I was using teabags and salt rinsing like mad when my teeth were in bad shape the first half of the summer. It kept me from losing my mind.
He'll want to avoid the salt rinse idea, though, since it'll cause the sockets at the tooth extraction site to lose their crust, and dry socket is pain x1000.

Taliah Thank you, both of you ^^ I can only imagine how awful that would hurt having salt there... neutral Then again, anything concerning teeth tend to hurt horribly anyway. Just thinking about past toothaches make me cringe, to be honest.
Actually, if you have a really bad cracked or broken tooth, or an infected one, salt rinses are from the Gods. They help keep it clean, and stop the pain almost instantly. I couldn't rinse often enough to keep the pain away, though. I was in agony for almost 2 months, and utterly exhausted by the time it was done.
After a tooth extraction, though, you don't want anything to disturb the scab over the empty socket - otherwise you get direct contact with the nerves and the bone, and the pain is like lightning. Dry socket is just evil.
