Back in the late 1980's my neighbor owned a dental practice and our families were good friends, I had wisdom teeth pulled and had what she called a dry socket, she said in her opinion the pain was like giving birth, she brought me clove oil, you can get it at any drug store here, Walmart etc. I swear by this stuff, only use a little and try to not swallow it, it's amazing stuff that in my case killed the pain within seconds.
I tend to stay clear of offering advice on addictive drugs and taking them as we are all different and I am not a doctor nor do I know your history, clove oil however is safe.
