Please don't ever overdo the Tylenol like that - I know folks who ended up on dialysis that way - from accidental ODs. Two extra strength is the most you should ever take at a time.
If the pain is that bad get to an ER where they can give you something for pain. Or go to a walk in clinic.

It's a good idea to have clove oil in the house too - most drug stores now carry it btw. I wish I'd known about that hack back in the day. 😉

And ice pack or a hot pack to the face might have helped you too.

@K9Kohle789 linked a good article on the dangers of Tylenol OD below.

If you need more out of your Tylenol try the one for migraine pain - it has caffeine and aspirin in it. But don't mix it with other NSAIDS.

Did you get it taken care of? Empathetic minds want to know

Yes, of course. Root canal and crown

Clamp a clothes pin on your finger tips till you find the right one that stops the path of pain from your tooth to your brain. It really works for a while

Two motrins and one Tyleno.l works every time

Get some of that oil or lidocaine, bite down on it, idk, seems to help. Eventually they’ll rot out and not hurt anymore.

Get some CLOVE OIL, from a health food store. It has tO be pure clove oil.
Use a qtip and dab it on the aching tooth and gums.
That will take away the pain.

@HippieCHick I think she had success with clove oil

Cotton seed oil from CVS or Walgreen's.

Alternate: 1 gram of Tylenol, 3 hours later, 600mg of ibuprofen, 3 hours later, 1000mg (1g) Tylenol, repeat. Taking tylenol and ibuprofen together, or within two hours, they cancel each other out. This regimen is the equivalent of vicodin; I used it for three days waiting to get in for root canal.

And as one person said, Oil of Clove can be helpful.

Helping Ty

Glad to oblige. Been there, done that, got the scar tissue.
