There are a couple things but you have to use carefully. One is clove oil... use sparingly and try to avoid getting it on flesh inside the mouth, diluting* it is recommended. Can cause nasty canker sores but that can be helped with either Vitamin E gel caps or Evening Primrose gel caps, bust one open in your mouth and make sure the oil gets on affected area.

Depending on the contour of the tooth in question, some beeswax over it with the clove oil can help by keeping air off of it and keeping the oil contained somewhat. If you have access to CBD oil, that can be helpful too. I use hemp tea for pain but I haven't had dental pain since I've had access to CBD products, I know it's very different kind of pain/

Also if you have any lydicaine handy, that can help too.

*You can use olive oil or some edible oil will do.
