Clove Oil and toothache?!


Question:

Clove Oil and toothache?

I've got a toothache and I went and bought some clove oil, but how do I use it? It says on the box "apply on cotton wool to the tooth cavity as required", but do I just dab it on the sore tooth or do I bite down on a bit of cotton wool soaked in it or do I try to pack the cavity with a bit of cotton wool soaked in it or what?

Oh, and how well does it actually work??!!


Answers:

My father and sister swear by oil of cloves and they have frequent toothache!

What you're supposed to do is dip the cotton wool in the oil and then bite down on it and hold it there for about 30-40 seconds.

but i should warn you its not that pleasant tasting!!

hope this helps :))
