Thanks, I do have cloves. I went from never having a cavity in my life and then at age 48 having multiples. I ended up waiting until mom passed and needless to say, exactly one week after she passed, I broke a tooth. So, going to the dentist every month to have one or two worked on. I had another broken one several nights ago and I think that has allowed shifting because the tooth that is hurting is not next to the broken one but a few away. My next appt isn't until the 9th, so don't know if I am going to need to go earlier. My sister brought me some anbesol, so I do have that now.
