Using clove oil
I m having an rct and it's taking too long to cure the infection. The dentist is doing dressings on every appointment. I asked him the reason and he said that its cause of infection. Can I use clove oil everyday one time to cure that infection.

No. Don't use clove oil. It will interfere with your final filling. If you could post your x-rays I could guide you better as to the extent of infection and why the treatment is taking so long.

Use of Clove oil is not going to cure infection as its having only soothing effect. It may cause ulcerations in cheek or lips.
