These studies suggest gabapentin can help with tooth pain, as it is effective in controlling pain and provides substantial relief for chronic neuropathic pain conditions. Gabapentin is also used as an adjunct to more potent anticonvulsants and for the management of certain types of neural pain. Definition and uses of gabapentin. Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant medication primarily used to treat seizures and nerve pain. The best pain reliever for a tooth ache, or really any transient pain is ibuprofen. (I worked with a dentist for 15 years.) If you don't already take Gabapentin, no one is going to prescribe it for you for a tooth ache. I was prescribed this after suffering from bothersome nerve damage from wisdom tooth surgery about 2.5 years ago. it definitely affects my life and how I’m able to focus on things, but not as much as other things like for instance, period pains or anxiety/depressions. however, reading about the risks of gabapentin and finding out it’s an epilepsy medication makes me go 😮😮. My pain is mostly coming from a specific tooth on the bottom jaw (which is visibly decayed) but not only. Yesterday I was fine, then got some mild toothache in that tooth, then within 40 mins I was in excruciating agonising pain - the worst of my life and that’s including bone fractures and severe period pains that make me vomit. Many people wonder how much gabapentin is necessary for tooth pain, especially when traditional over-the-counter medications don’t provide relief. This article explores the ins and outs of gabapentin, its effectiveness in treating tooth pain, recommended dosages, potential side effects, and considerations to keep in mind. I've started on gabapentin for sciatic nerve pain and it seems to be working out. Some of the initial fatigue and mental fog have faded, and I'm In a new study at the University of Rochester Medical Center’s Eastman Institute for Oral Health (EIOH), researchers found that gabapentin, when combined with ibuprofen or acetaminophen, was more effective than opioids in relieving pain after tooth extractions. So it’s been 3+ years now that I’m on high dowses of Nucynta and Gabapentin, plus the other 4 prescriptions I take daily, all of which have been cited by my dentist as hurting my gums and tooth health in part for the dehydration they are causing, but also how my nerves react. I have a crown on a tooth that was most likely not needed. Not one mentioned I should talk to my PCP, or mentioned it could be a nerve issue. No one talked about pain management. Gabapentin has made life so much more tolerable and I'm in contact with an ENT and a neurologist to figure out what's going on. TL;DR - YES, gabapentin can absolutely dull the symptoms of tooth pain. We would like to show you a description here but the site won’t allow us. I’ve just had jaw surgery and I’ve been prescribed gabapentin for tooth pain. They all hurt and I can’t chew currently. I’m reading all these posts about how addictive and high inducing this drug is and I’m not sure if I want to proceed. Gabapentin is helpful to some people with specific pain problems as many in the comments are suggesting. However if you are getting TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) to treat depression and/or anxiety keep in mind gabapentin can actually reduce the efficacy of the treatment. Just wondering if anyone here has had experience with gabapentin to help with teeth discomfort/sensitivity nerve irritation. They gave it to me for mouth nerve pain. Worked well. Yes, well I supposedly have trigeminal neurolgia in my teeth/mouth. I have extreme pain in all my teeth. I take gabapentin and 2 other meds for it. For a year now I've had a toothache that won't go away. Dentists root-canaled the tooth multiple times and eventually extracted it. The "tooth" pain was still there. It's literally phantom tooth pain. In the wake of the extraction, I was really down. The extraction was always my last resort option, and it didn't work to remove the pain. When I got up to 400 x3 daily I experienced gum pain and mouth sores which went away then I went up to 600x3 daily and experienced horrible gum/teeth pain. I’ve never had dental issues before. I certainly it’s the gabapentin that has caused this for me. Anyone else experienced anything similar? The pain pill my vet gave me after this last dental was a flavored chewable and my cat took it easy peasy like it was a treat! They also gave me liquid Gabapentin and that was very hard to give her but I did my best getting doses into her. I've taken neurontin (gabapentin) or other types of pain, but not for oral pain. It is a medication that works best for nerve-related pain. So, if your pain is nerve-related it may work very well. These studies suggest gabapentin can be effective in controlling pain, including tooth pain, as it is more effective than a placebo and other pain medications in some cases.
