Bryonia: Inflammation of serous and mucous membranes; toothache with shooting pain from one tooth to the other; pain is worse from warmth; irritable disposition.
Calcium carbonicum Hahnemanni: Facilitates teething, useful in delayed dentition; the head perspires during teething; grinding of the teeth; all bodily excretions have a sour odour.
Chamomilla: Unbearable toothache with paradoxical pains which radiate to the ears; intolerance to pain, aggravated at night and from warmth.
Colocynthis: Impatient, easily angered, restlessness during pain; pains in the teeth, as if the nerves were pulled or stretched, pain has a pulsative quality.
Ignatia: Hysterical reactions; continual whimpering; nervous excitability. Odontalgia with the sensation as if the teeth were broken; looseness of the teeth; difficult dentition with convulsions.
Staphisagria: Gums appear unhealthy and retracted, teeth have a tendency to decay or crumble; toothache is worse cold, worse after eating, worse with menstruation.
R35 acts to decrease acute pain and inflammation occurring in various conditions caused by hyper-excitability; frequently preceding illness which has been brought about by a chill, such as bronchitis. In cases presenting with symptoms of odontalgia, it is advisable to check the ears to differentiate from the pain of otitis media.
