Clove bud is definitely one of the most useful oils to have around the house. For over 2,000 years, the clove tree has been cultivated for a variety of uses. While native to Indonesia, cloves are used across the world for medicinal and herbal purposes. Cloves play a vital role in Indian Ayurvedic medicine and Chinese medicine, as they have a numbing effect on oral tissue. Additionally, they are used in Asian, African, and Middle Eastern cooking to add flavor to dishes.
Clove oil uses include digestive support and antioxidant support. Traditional Chinese Medicine used clove for digestive and respiratory support.
Clove oil uses have historically included all things dental. It's principal constituent eugenol, is used in the dental industry to numb the gums.
While clove bud oil has many useful properties, it is perhaps best known for its association with dental practices. For a tried and true toothache relief, add a few drops of the oil to a cotton swab before applying topically to the gums for a much needed respite. The oil is also great if you have had any dental work recently done, as it can be used to soothe the condition known as “dry socket,” a postoperative complication of tooth extraction, by numbing the affected area and helping to preventing any further irritation. Additionally, clove bud can be used to counteract mouth and throat irritation and pain when applied directly to the skin.
Thanks to its stimulating and warming properties, clove bud can be used in aromatherapy to aid with digestive problems. By topically applying the diluted oil to your stomach or abdomen, one can warm up and stimulate the digestive tract. Add a drop of clove bud oil to your choice of herbal tea to help relieve nausea.
The oil can be further used externally to help alleviate muscular aches and sprains. For respiratory problems, the disinfecting properties of clove bud are most useful when used in vapor therapy. To help relieve muscle aches and pains, including those caused by arthritis, mix eight drops of clove oil into two ounces of carrier oil, such as jojoba or almond, and massage onto the affected area.
