Probably not: And even it it did, then you would need root canal therapy on that tooth. The clove oil is for temporary relief of pain on a tooth that is alive. At this point, your dentist may be able to restore it without root canal therapy. If the nerve is already dead, the clove oil will do nothing.

No: Oil of clove (eugenol) temporarily gives relief, but not permanent.
