What's the best over the counter teeth medicine?

Can anybody recommend any type of over- the-counter medicine that is effective in relieving teeth ache?

Answer:
Teeth can ache for several reasons it is important to have a general idea of the source. OTC
medications are topical in other words they numb the surface tissue they are applied to, these work well for erupting teeth, gum sores,abrasions,any thing involving the soft tissues.The most common aches within the teeth are 1. nerve damage or infection. this will usually be accompanied by swelling below the cheek bone or along you lower jaw. Although strong OTC pain relievers can give some relief a quick trip to the dentist to is better than a trip to the drug store.there are 7 day providers all around. A dentist can assess the tooth for infection in that case only antibiotics will relive the pressure. 2. pit or cavity sensitivity brought on by hole or compromised tooth surface from decay or trauma.small cotton piece soaked in the topical gel or even temp filling material. the purpose is to cover exposed dentin from temperature and food impaction. same thing as before go see your dentist he is a professional who can diagnose the cause and make proper treatment recommendations
Clove oil...dont know a brand though. Be really careful though cause it burns if you use to much.
