Question: will tylenol help tooth pain?
Answer: The best OTC method for tooth pain is actually to alternate ibuprofen and acetaminophen every 3 hours. Take ibuprofen (i.e. Motrin or Advil), then 3 hours later take acetaminophen (i.e. Tylenol), then 3 hours later ibuprofen, ect. Continue this regimen until you see your dental provider.
