Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

Read your query.

Tooth pain can be completely reduced only with the treatment of the tooth .Once the root canal is opened ,the pain will be reduced in most cases.You are already taking a heavy dosage of painkillers,adding ketofan to this may cause over dosage.Hence it not advisable to take all this at a time.

I would advice you to either prepone your dentist appointment to the earliest as you may need antibiotics like amoxicillin 500mg thrice a day for the infection.

Do salt water gargling and avoid applying Hot bag.

Hope this was beneficial.

Thanks and regards.
