The pulp is the soft area in the center of the tooth that contains nerves and blood vessels. We can feel heat, cold and touch in our teeth because of the pulp in them. The pulp also causes pain when it becomes injured or infected. Flossing and brushing regularly to remove irritating food particles, may help reduce toothache. Using pain relievers may also provide temporary relief, but it is best to limit use of topical medications containing benzocaine like Orajel.

Medications used to treat toothaches include Ibuprofen, Acetaminophen and Orajel. Each medication contains negative side effects that include headaches, dizziness, fatigue, sweating, numbness in hands and feet, blurred
vision, ringing in the ears, ankle swelling, abdominal pain, nausea, fast heartbeat, light headedness, and shortness of breath.

Orajel used in the mouth may cause a condition in which the oxygen in your body tissues can become dangerously low. This is a potentially fatal condition called methemoglobinemia. Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychoactive compound derived from the hemp plant known for its potential therapeutic effects.

Studies show that CBD may help reduce pain and inflammation in an affected tooth by interacting with cannabinoid receptors. Some of these receptors have a link to the immune system and lower its response when they encounter CBD. Since our bodies create inflammation for immune purposes, the CBD reduces the inflammation they make, easing the pain and swelling associated with a toothache in the process.

We always recommend visiting a medical professional if you have a long-lasting or severe toothache. You can use CBD to make toothache pain more manageable, but only a dentist can address the cause.

If your level of pain is & lt 4/7 you can take our AHS 750mg Essential Tincture Oil. If your level of pain is & gt 8/10 you can take our AHS 1500mg Isolate Tincture Oil. For best results drop the CBD oil on a cotton swab and apply to affected tooth and gums.

Always consult your primary care physician before starting a new regimen. Our team of specialists are always available to provide you with education and assist you with any questions regarding CBD.

There are so many reasons why we turn to CBD, either for relief or supplemental use. Learning about CBD and its ability to help many different medical conditions is important information to know. In fact, CBD is known to help people who suffer from Multiple sclerosis (MS).  MS is when your immune system attacks a fatty material called myelin, which wraps around your nerve fibers to protect them. Without this outer shell, your nerves become damaged. The damage means your brain can’t send signals through your body correctly. Some of the symptoms that occur with MS include pain, tingling, numbness and an electric shock feeling when moving your head or neck that travels down your spine or into your arms and legs.

Unfortunately, there is no cure for MS however there are medications that could help ease symptoms as well as slow down progression of the disease. Using medications to treat MS could come with side effects as well as long term use complications. Unlike CBD, medications can be very harsh on our body, which makes CBD a more appealing alternative for many. CBD is non-psychoactive, non-addictive and does not cause any side effects nor is it harsh on the body. CBD provides relief for those who suffer from diseases such as MS.

The human body produces certain cannabinoids on its own. It also has two receptors for cannabinoids, called the CB1 receptors and CB2 receptors.CB1 receptors are present throughout the body, but many are in the brain.The CB1 receptors in the brain deal with coordination and movement, pain, emotions, and mood, thinking, appetite, memories, and other functions.CB2 receptors are more common in the immune system.

Research shows CBD has improved spasticity-related symptoms and pain in patients with MS. CBD could be a very helpful alternative however it is important to consult with your Healthcare Provider if you are currently taking any medications before consuming CBD. At AHS we have the very best team to help you find the right product and recommended dosage specifically for your needs.
