Clove Oil
Clove oil is high in eugenol, which has powerful antiseptic and anesthetic properties that destroy germs and relieve gum pain.
Studies have found that it is as effective as benzocaine in numbing pain.
You should combine a few drops of this oil with a teaspoon of coconut oil, and use a cotton ball, apply the mixture on the painful area.
When the place is numb, remove it, and wash the mouth. You can also chew a few cloves using the painful side of the mouth.
Vanilla Extract

Turmeric Paste

Essential Oils
One 2014 study found that:
“Essential oil rinses are found to be equally effective in inhibiting plaque.
A study carried out by Pizzo et al. on plaque inhibitory effect of amine fluoride/stannous fluoride and essential oils showed no significant difference in efficacy of both.
As chlorhexidine causes staining of teeth on long term use, essential oils can be used as an alternative to chlorhexidine rinse.
Essential oils have shown to possess antimicrobial activity against subgingival pernio pathogens, too.”
For best effects, use clove, tea tree oil, peppermint, myrrh, cinnamon, and spearmint.
Acupressure
Press the hand on the affected side, on the place where the base of the index finger and the thumb meet, and hold for several minutes.
This will stimulate the release of endorphins, which will relieve the pain.
