Mix of Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen works well.
Advil, Aleve, or Anbesol.
Alternate Tylenol extra strength and ibuprofen every 2 hours
Hi,

You can take Motrin or Aleve (200mg each) over the counter up to 2-3 tablets every 6-8 hours. It is highly recommended to get it checked at a dentist office as soon as possible.
Ibuprofen 600mg or 800 mg every 8 hours. You should consult with an endodontist for possible root canal treatment.
An endodontist (root canal specialist) is the best painkiller for nerve pain from root canals. They remove the nerve. If there is no nerve, how can it hurt? Nothing else comes close.
Good luck.
The best pain killer for tooth nerve pain is ibuprofen.
For tooth pain, alternate Tylenol and Ibuprofen. And see your dentist asap to find out the source of the pain.
