I went to a presentation at a conference where the products of this company
were being touted for daily use and to prevent gum disease. http://www.oramd.com/
Their products are basically iirc peppermint and spearmint essential oils.
But they do have interesting things to say about most toothpastes.
Anecdotally, I've found that when I've had a mild toothache, the tiniest
bit of tea tree essential oil on the tip of a toothpick, applied to the
spot, was effective. Clove oil is usually promoted for this use, but I
think it's too strong. But note that most essential oils are not
recommended for internal use.
Another remedy I've used for dental emergencies is a bit of echinacea
tincture on a tiny bit of cotton ball, placed next to the gum. The
echinacea has a numbing effect.
