I used a signal-generator, and two stainless spoons with cling-film
across all but the end of the handle, across the gum, in order to kill
dental pain.
IIRC about 500Hz squarewave at 1V worked best.

It took it from a stage where paracetamol/asprin made absolutely no
difference, and I was wondering if I had a suitable hammer to remove
the tooth, to being a slightly odd dull feeling in that part of the jaw
for
several hours.

AKA TENS.

Oh! I've never thought about a tens for toothache relief, thanks. I'll try
to remember that.
