Clove oil has been known to cause permanent brain damage in a fish when used over & over. This is why MS-222 (Finquel) is recommended whenever possible.

You would think that your local vet would be able to do puffer dentistry but when I asked they didnt want to know.

Crunchy foods are to prevent the teeth fron overgrowing. Once the teeth are overgrown, no amount of crunchy foods will help & if they are very far gone, can even break the teeth.
