Use Vanilla Extract for Toothaches.
Don't worry, I am not suggesting that you add more sugar to your cavity. However, the tiny concentration of alcohol in vanilla extract can work wonders in numbing your gums around a painful toothache. Simply soak a cotton swab in vanilla extract or add a drop or two to your finger or and rub it against the afflicted area for some quite literally sweet relief.
