Fun Fact

Some natural dentists use clove to pack cavities or root canals when the patient needs to come back to finish their dental work.

The word clove comes from the Latin word clavus, meaning nail since the shaft and head of the clove bud resembles a nail. Cloves and nutmeg were among the most precious items of Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries, and they were worth more than their weight in gold.
