bob brown Posted February 19, 2018 #26 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Even if you did, most toothaches will need something done to the tooth, which I am sure the dentist would not have available. I could loan the dentist my Leatherman.....it has a nice pair of plyer's.... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arzeena Posted February 19, 2018 #27 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Anyone ever have a toothache while cruising. What did the medical center do for you, if anything.🤔 May not answer your question exactly, but take some cloves with you and press a bud between your teeth where it hurts. Kills the pain till you can get to a dentist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arzeena Posted February 19, 2018 #29 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I've done the same thing with an aspirin. Yes, that works great too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xcell Posted February 19, 2018 #30 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Yes, that works great too! careful not to put the aspirin on any tissue or you will get an aspirin burn...may take your mind off the toothache though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bookish Angel Posted February 20, 2018 #31 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I hope they’re able to see you at your dentist! I am on your sailing!

Dett Posted February 20, 2018 #32 Share Posted February 20, 2018 My husband had a crown fall off on our 1st day of a cruise. No pain, tho'. He went to Medical. They offered to set him up with a dentist in St. Thomas but he declined. He decided to wait until we got home since it really wasn't a problem. I had a dentist tell me to put a crown back on with Vaseline. Not sure how it worked because mine came off in the same city where I lived so was able to get to a dentist. I asked what I could have done if I was out of town and he told me Vaseline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cargo13 Posted March 14, 2018 #33 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Your travel insurance should cover the dental treatment. Generali sent us to their dentist in St Thomas and they paid up front.
