Instant relief without drugs

Oil of Cloves or ground up cloves placed on the offending tooth. Relief is instant and you can keep applying it until you can get the dentist.

Thanks for the tip Guy. I may need it soon as I'm getting a desparado for dental treatment. I'm not in real pain just yet but a few teeth are making me wince when biting down on food.

It might be the door handle and a length of fishing line if my dentist doesn't call me soon. 😨

Cheers - Chris

How's the tooth?

Hello Guy , , thanks for asking. .Not to be over dramatic but on the edge of a precipice with whats left of the old molars not helped by the fact there's no sign of my dentist opening soon.

Fortunately I'm not in any discomfort yet. But with gaps due to receding gumlines I'm worried about abscesses .

Hope you're well.

Chris

Hello, just to add some information...oil of cloves are actually an ingredient in some material used in dentistry, so it is an old, well tried remedy.

Thanks Swede. , , Yes I thought it sounded familiar as I think I may have had a clove used as a temporary packing as part of extensive treatment I had last year. Whatever it was it tasted ruddy awful and disowned away after a few hours.

I recall you've been a member since the early days of the Forum as I recognise your profile name and pic. . I hope you are doing well with your MF progression and it's not impacting on your life too much. Chris
