Before my wife had one of her teeth pulled, it drove her to distraction -- we resorted, for a while, to topical anesthetics that are sold with a sort of tooth spackle at the local pharmacy. I'd recommend whatever Sir Laurence Olivier used on Dustin Hoffman in _Marathon Man_ if I could remember what it was... maybe oil of clove?
If sympathy rather than advice is what you were looking for, please pretend I only offered that, and ignore the rest :>
