Clove oil, derived from the flower buds of the clove tree (Syzygium aromaticum), is a highly valued essential oil known for its strong aroma and wide range of medicinal and therapeutic properties. Its main active compound, eugenol, gives it powerful antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and pain-relieving effects, making it especially popular as a natural remedy for dental issues such as toothaches and gum pain. In addition to its role in oral care, clove oil is used in aromatherapy to relieve stress, improve blood circulation, and support respiratory health.
