When
a toothache appears, all we need is a rapid solution to reduce the pain until
we get to the doctor.
One
of the natural and fast solutions for teeth pain is the wonder plant used by
the Amazonian tribal doctors, but also by the Asian traditional medicine, the
plant called toothache plant.
The
leaves are opposite, simple petiolate up to 6.5 centimeters long.
Discoid
flowers reach up to 2.5 inches long.
The
fruit of the plant is achene.
The
beautiful yellow flowers deliver a salty-peppery taste and are used as a
toothache remedy.
In
fact, the whole plant is acrid in flavor.
The
use of this natural treatment for tooth pain produces no side effects
identified for the time being.
The toothache plant contains essential oils, spilanthol, acmellonate, alkaloids, flavonoids,
tannins, and saponins.
Spilanthol
is a fatty acid amide from toothache plants and it is believed to be responsible
for the local anesthetic properties of the plant.
