Tylenol Extra StrengthA recent study out of an Engligh dental school showed that Acetominophen (most commonly marketed as Tylenol)  is a safe and effective pain reliever after wisdom tooth extractions.  The most effective dose appears to be 1000mg every six hours, which is equal to 2 extra strength capsules.  If your stomach can't tolerate ibuprofen (Advil/Motrin), then acetominophen may be a great alternative for relief of dental pain after extractions, and perhaps other dental procedures as well.
