If you answered NO to all the questions, you are at a low to medium risk for pain medicine misuse. Over-the-counter pain medicine such as ibuprofen (Advil®) and acetaminophen (Tylenol®) are best for tooth pain. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about which would be best for you.
If you answered YES to any questions, you are at higher risk for pain medicine misuse. Ask your dentist for other options for dental pain.
