Orajel for immediate relief, the generic brands usually work just as well too. Infant's Tylenol for a more long-term minor pain relief.

Im going to the orthodontist today for a second opinion you still have 6 baby teeth left Will he pull them and put on the braces this month or wait for them to fall out?
Probably not. Baby teeth have a purpose other that chewing baby food. They are natural space maintainers, holding space for the permanent tooth to erupt into, and they help guide the erupting teeth into place. Sometimes, baby teeth hang in longer than they should. At that point they are "over retained" and should be removed because an over retained baby tooth can block the normal eruption of the permanent tooth. Your orthodontist will guide you to the right plan.

A baby tooth is a tooth which will be replaced when it has been lost by the child to whom it belongs, and replaced with a permanent, adult tooth.
Is it rare to have a baby tooth as an adult?
not as much as you think. It actually happens quite often. when it does, you treat that tooth as a permanent tooth and fill cavities. You can even crown a baby tooth if there is no permanent tooth underneath it. If you have a permanent tooth under it, they usually extract the baby tooth.
If you have a baby tooth and an adult tooth is growing in front of the baby tooth would you need to remove the baby tooth?
This is very common in children where the adult tooth comes out behind or in front of the baby tooth. Sometimes the baby tooth becomes loose as the adult tooth comes out more and extraction is not necessary. If the tooth is not becoming loose, then the tooth should be removed.

What if your adult tooth is coming in behind your baby tooth and the baby tooth is not getting loose to pull?
This happened`with our six year old. Sometimes the adult teeth do not "attack" the root of the "baby" tooth and weaken it enough to make it fall out first. This is not an "emergency" but you should probably have the tooth looked at by a pediatric dentist. It is quite normal for the permanent tooth to appear slightly behind the baby tooth and slightly before the baby tooth is lost. If it is "wiggly", it probably won't make much difference whether the tooth is removed or allowed to come out on its own. The tongue does a good job of pushing the permanent tooth forward into position if there is adequate space. A lot depends on the amount of spacing among the baby teeth. Definitely ask your child's dentist about the "arch length" at your next visit. The biggest concern is that the new tooth will not have room to be properly placed. In situations like this, the baby tooth will have to be pulled. Sometimes the coexisting tooth will work out the baby tooth on its own. Some dentists will say to give it one to two months to see if the "baby" tooth works out on its own. One other thing though, ONLY in the lower front is it normal for the teeth to erupt behind. Anywhere else, if the permanent tooth hasn't come out, then the baby tooth may need some help. Basically, it is a judgment call for the dentist, and except in a few extreme cases, there is no "right" answer. To view a chart about teeth eruption, visit the Related Link.
