Is it a good idea to ignore dental pain and tough it out if you have a toothache?

Nope

no. it depends on the pain. just be aware things may get worse. generally you can get cheap or free treatment for an emergency.

For a week or so but best to get it checked prior to losing a tooth.

No.. get it taken care of.. it's just expensive tho 😬

No. The problem will not get better all on its own and could cause more widespread infection.

No, ignoring it may make it worse and more expensive to fix, if not impossible.

Not a good idea.

Sounds like a way to guarantee that it will be more painful and more expensive later.

Better a piece of string and a doorknob than ignore it
