Clove Bud is the first choice as first aid for toothache. A couple of drops of Clove essential oil on a cotton wool bud, applied to the aching tooth, has a slight analgesic affect, relieving pain for a few hours.

Psychologically, Clove is a mental, emotional and subtle energy tonic, and is both restorative and stimulating.  It should not be confused with Clove Leaf or Clove Stem essential oils which are skin irritants and are not normally used in therapy.
