A pinch of hot pepper powder mixed with common salt is a good treatment. Rub it on the gums -- if you can stand the heat.

Natural Remedies for a Toothache #4 - Many People's Favorite Remedy - Liquor 

Works in TWO Ways

Naturally you can use liquor the old fashioned way to ease the pain -- by drinking it. But it can also be used as a numbing agent directly on the hurting tooth.

Dip a Q-tip or cotton swab into the liquor (brandy works especially well) and press it against the affected tooth to help numb the pain.

You can also make the gums numb by taking a swig of whiskey and holding it over the painful tooth.

The great things about all of these natural toothache remedies, is that they are all very common, they are all completely harmless (if you use the alcohol in moderation, of course) and they are all easy to try.
