Aconitum napellus; Antimonium crudum; Arnica montana; Belladonna atropa; Chamomilla; Coffea cruda; Kreosotum; Magnesium phosphoricum; Mercurius solubilis; Plantago major (locally and internally); Silicea; Staphysagria.

Aconitum napellus: Aggravated by cold wind, but better with cold water.

Antimonium crudum: Gum margins detached from teeth, bleed easily. Teeth feel hollow and aching.

Arnica montana: Pain after dental fillings or trauma.

Belladonna atropa: Stabbing or throbbing pain in the gums; often similar to migraine.

Chamomilla: A severe toothache, worse at night and in a warm room. Irritability is marked, and may be the precipitating factor in triggering the pain.

Coffea cruda: Relief with cold water or ice in the mouth is characteristic.

Kreosotum: Rapid decay of teeth, with spongy and bleeding gums; offensive odor.

Magnesium phosphoricum: This is the homoeopathic Aspirin.

Mercurius solubilis: Stabbing pains radiating to the ears, worse at night. Profuse salivation.

Plantago major: Used both locally and on the tongue. Teeth are sensitive to touch and feel too long.

Silicea: Pain aggravated by either hot or cold food, or cold wind. Often worse at night. Commonly associated with a root abscess or a gingivitis.

Staphysagria: Severe pain. The teeth are especially sensitive so that the least touch, or cold air triggers a toothache, especially at night. Often worse after food, pains typically drawing and tearing in character. The cheek is often swollen and red.
