Chervil is high in many beneficial volatile essential oils. One of these essential oils is eugenol, which is also known as oil of cloves. Dentists often use oil of cloves during routine dental procedures thanks to its antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties and because of its ability to ease pain. Chervil may also be helpful for treating skin rashes, minor wounds, and insect bites.
