How Effective is CBD When It Comes to Treating
Toothaches?
CBD is one of ne of the prominent cannabinoids, which is arguably second in prominence only to
THC. This special cannabinoid has gained so much attention lately due to the wide range of
bene ts it brings to the table. Starting from the continuous chatter and searches concerning CBD
that seem to continue to grow day by day, to the varying number of clinical research going on
around the compound. We can safely conclude that CBD is a bene cial natural product that is here
to stay and is bound to o er a lot of healing to humanity. A wide range of medical marijuana as we
know it today is largely based on the bene cial health e ects of CBD, complemented by the
entourage e ect of THC and CBD, as well as the other cannabinoids.
Due to the varying health bene ts that CBD has to o er, the isolation of this useful compound has
allowed it to be introduced into a di erent number of products. Despite the FDA classifying
cannabis as a Schedule 1 narcotic drug of no medicinal value, it still approved Epidiolex which is a
drug containing CBD for use in rare forms of seizures in children. CBD has been incorporated into
foods and drinks, oils, topical creams, and tinctures for a number of wellness bene ts. The non-
psychoactive cannabinoid which promotes calmness and relaxation works through the
endocannabinoid system to facilitate a good number of bene cial health responses. This is why
CBD has been looked into as a natural answer to some of the common health problems that a ect
humans. One of which is the possible activity of CBD in treating toothaches.
CBD and Toothaches
Toothaches generally occur as a result of infection of the teeth which then opens up the teeth to
in ammation and excruciating pain. The teeth contains nerves and blood vessels that open the
body to a di erent sense of feelings and perceptions thanks to the presence of the nerve endings.
The inner part of the teeth, which is known as the dentine, is the part that hurts when infected and
this pain radiates to the entirety of the body. Masticated foods such as starch and sugars serve as
brewing ground for which some bacteria nd their way to the teeth. Once they in ltrate the teeth
and proper brushing is not done, they can create cavities. These cavities deepen into the teeth and

the infection causes toothache. Periodontal diseases and abscesses a ecting the gums and bones
can also open the teeth to toothaches. Other known causes of toothaches are also poor diet,
hormonal changes, and overlapping or rotated teeth.
Strong pain and in ammation are common attributes that accompany toothaches. This is because
the body reacts to the bacterial infection by prompting an in ammatory response through the
immune system. This also prompts pain which makes the in ammation, pain, and bacterial
infection the prominent characteristics of toothaches. CBD has been researched for its
e ectiveness in dealing with toothaches on the basis of these three prominent characteristics. This
is because CBD has shown analgesic, anti-in ammatory, and antibacterial characteristics in
di erent researches which have prompted promise as to its usefulness in dealing with toothaches.
The anti-in ammatory activity records of CBD have been referenced in times past though there is
still a need for more concrete clinical studies on the subject. Anecdotal and scienti c evidence has
shown the relationship that CBD has with in ammation prompted by the immune system. This is
why CBD has been proposed as an e ective product for dealing with toothaches. The other
expression that follows in ammation is pain and CBD likewise has shown considerable analgesic
activity. Several associated kinds of research and studies show the e ectiveness of CBD in dealing
with pain and providing relief. This has been the prominent reason for the use of CBD oil by many
as well as tinctures and topical creams that are infused with CBD.
The nal activity of CBD that makes it right and adequate to deal with toothaches is its antibacterial
activity. A 2008 study by the Journal of National Products shows the activity of CBD among
di erent cannabinoids in producing activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. CBD
also has an antibacterial activity which helps the oil in dealing with Staphylococci and Streptococci
infections. Dental surgeon Mark Burhenne also helped in opening us to other reasons why dentists
can be looking to CBD for help in dealing with toothaches. He explained that the ability of CBD to
help in initiating a calm feeling helps to remove the anxiety that many patients face when going to
see the dentist. Likewise, CBD also seems to help the healing process when many go through
dental surgeries.
The absence of prominent side e ects when it comes to CBD as opposed to some of the pills and
other medications makes it a very viable and acceptable option. Also, the presence of di erent
means of use such as the use of CBD oils, tinctures, oral sprays, and edibles makes CBD a very
good option. This has seen CBD being infused into toothpaste as well in a bid to help dental health
and overall wellness. One drawback that may occur, however, is the relationship between CBD and
cannabinoids with saliva. This is because cannabinoids have been known to promote dry mouth,
especially through smoking. Saliva, on the other hand, is very important to dental health because it
helps to maintain the environment for bacterial growth, for the purpose of healing and
contributing to the health of the gum. However, with good health and the use of oils and tinctures,
the issue with saliva and dry mouth can be easily avoided.
Bottom line

The WHO considers the oral consumption of CBD to be safe which is why it is allowed to be
incorporated in a good number of products that go through the oral route. This means that oils
and oral sprays containing CBD can easily be applied to the site of the toothache. Although there is
still a need for more substantial information and relevant studies regarding the e ectiveness of
CBD when it comes to dealing with di erent conditions like toothaches, the initial signs in terms of
the analgesic, anti-in ammatory, and antibacterial activities of CBD already paint a good picture of
e ectiveness.
