Handling a toothache

 

Toothache can be a very painful and uncomfortable experience. Here are some tips on how to handle toothache:

  1. Rinse your mouth with warm saltwater: Mix a teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water and swish it around your mouth for a few minutes. This can help relieve pain and reduce swelling.

  2. Use over-the-counter pain relief medication: Over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen can help relieve the pain and reduce inflammation. Follow the dosage instructions on the packaging and consult with a healthcare professional if you have any questions.

  3. Apply a cold compress: Place a cold compress on the outside of your cheek to reduce swelling and numb the pain. You can use a bag of frozen vegetables or a cold pack wrapped in a towel.

  4. Avoid hot and cold foods and drinks: Eating or drinking hot or cold items can make the pain worse. Stick to room temperature or lukewarm items.

  5. Avoid sugary and acidic foods: Sugary and acidic foods can irritate the affected tooth and make the pain worse. Stick to a soft, bland diet until you can see a dentist.

  6. See a dentist: If the pain persists for more than a day or two, make an appointment with a dentist. They can diagnose the cause of the toothache and recommend appropriate treatment, such as a filling, a root canal, or an extraction.

Remember, while these tips can provide temporary relief, it's essential to see a dentist if the pain persists or worsens. A dentist can identify the underlying cause of the toothache and provide appropriate treatment to address the issue.

Spirits of Estonia

In Estonia however, hard liquor is pretty serious stuff.  Spirits can be made from many raw materials including grapes, potato, and grain. These days in Estonia the vast majority of vodka is made using high quality rye grain. First the raw material is fermented using yeast, which creates a weak alcohol or mash. Next this product is distilled creating a much stronger alcohol. Finally the impurities are filtered off, and water is added to bring the percentage from about 96 to about 40.And that is how you make vodka! Of course there is much to be said about quality and it certainly varies from brand to brand. The world’s best vodkas are made from the finest grains, the purest waters, multiple distillation & special filtration techniques.    A little h...
