I chipped a tooth pretty bad about two weeks ago, and lemme tell ya, the pain was no joke. I tried all the usual stuff at first, ice packs, ibuprofen, saltwater rinses... you name it. It helped a little, but not enough to really feel normal again. Anyway, my mom suggested clove oil (she swears by it for anything tooth-related) and honestly I was skeptical at first because it sounded like one of those weird home remedies that usually don't work.
But guess what—it actually did! Like almost instantly numbed the pain. I mean, yeah, the taste was kinda funky and took some getting used to... but totally worth it to not feel like my mouth was exploding anymore.
Now I'm curious if anyone else has had luck with other home remedies or tricks for dealing with tooth pain? Would love to hear what's worked for you guys too.
Glad you found something that worked—I’ve heard good things about clove oil but wasn’t sure if it was legit. Honestly, tooth pain freaks me out, so it’s reassuring to hear your experience before I try it myself...
