Things I have tried till now (from yesterday night):
1. 5mg Xanax
2. 3mg Clonazepam
3. 1200 mg Ibuprofen
4. 2 tubes of lidocaine
5. Huge amount of iodine mouth wash mixed with hot water
6. Extreme Cope Seethe and Dilate
The only effect of 1-5 have been that I have repeatedly fallen asleep only to wake up and realize the pain hasn't gone away and take more of the same thing. While drug abuse might be cool, this isn't sustainable for more than 48 hours.
Any other thing I should tack on top of these? My dentist told me to frick off since he ruled out surgery and told me the tooth and some nerves are so entangled that extracting will not work and thus just cope. If I go for surgery anyway and damage my nerves, it might cause permanent alteration of sense, touch and taste.
Anyway how do you guys deal with extreme teeth pain?
Pinging !r-slurs since there isn't any !personal ping group

Okay i should add for both you and @Joe_Manchin that this is the 3rd dentist who has told me that mandibular parasthesia is a very high probability in my condition if I opt for surgery

Oof.. yeah can't help you there. Tooth pain is about the worst. I had a molar die on me after a filling and had to have a root canal. The worst pain I've ever experienced. Praying for u bb

Honestly, get a second opinion from another dentist.

Large quantities of hydrocodone, hydromorphone, and IV heroin (in ascending order of effectiveness)
Failing that, high dose kratom activates mu-opioid receptors in higher doses with some strains, but you can get addicted to that pretty easily and WDs suck cause of the opiate thing. Also doesn't work as well as the real thing
But imo get the surgery anyway, you're talking (presumably) lifelong pain vs. potentially not being able to taste as well which seems like an easy decision to me

That's honestly the last resort. Some oxy or fent or morphine. I don't want to get sucked down that vortex but the pain is too real. Maybe I shouldn't have judged all those addicts so much now that I can get addicted to it as well.
