Hello, In case if the pain is severe and not tolerable, then you can take her to the emergency room so that they can give her injectable painkillers to relieve pain for a longer duration and also faster. In case if she is allergic to Ibuprofen, you can also give other painkillers like Motorola, Diclofenac etcetera, but only if you know she is not allergic to those. Also, do cool compresses over the cheek. Apply Lidocaine gel over the extraction site as it will help in relieving pain. If the pain still continues to get worse, consult her dentist and get checked. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
