It was not the drilling alone he used to torture Dustin Hoffman's character, but by applying Cloves Oil in varying degrees to the drilt tooth. Aug 06 03, 10:50 PM

Oil of cloves was used to numb the pain to prevent the character getting used to the pain by relieving it every now and then. From experience, it is one of the best things for any one suffering from toothache Aug 07 03, 2:53 AM
