I love your decision! It sounds like the pup will be much better in your care! Plus, Emily's suggestion about water therapy is great!
I have attached the dog care sheet (AromaTools.com) and it lists several oils and what they can be used for on dogs. Specifically for tooth/gum issues it recommends the on guard oil blend (not the toothpaste). But for pain, I would treat the inflammation which causes the pain by using frankincense, lavender, peppermint, etc. I make rollers for use on my dogs--with three oils I use 15 drops of each oil plus FCO to fill a 5 mL roller bottle. I have one that is an "antibiotic" blend of on guard, oregano, and frankincense, plus FCO. I've also used one with deep blue, aroma touch, and frankincense, plus FCO to fill. But wintergreen can be a problem for dogs though I've not had a problem (wintergreen is in deep blue). With the rollers you just roll it on each pad on each paw every couple of hours for whatever issue the dog is dealing with.
My son's new pup was spayed a couple of months ago and I made three rollers: 1) the antibiotic blend described above, 2) a calming blend of serenity, lavender and lemon plus FCO to fill a 5mL roller, and 3) the pain blend described above. One-by-one we rolled the pads on her paws and then around the incision on her tummy, and we did it every two hours during the day, and again if she woke up at night to go out. The oils are metabolized pretty quickly, so frequency is important when treating a specific problem rather than just being preventative. We didn't use any of the pills the vet gave us (pre-paid as part of the puppy package he had purchased), we used oils instead and she healed just fine. The antibiotic we were given was amoxicillin, but I know that our oregano oil is stronger than 18 of the most commonly prescribed antibiotics, including penicillin, and amoxicillin isn't much different.
One of my pups (7 pound toy poodle) was a rescue and has lost most of his teeth as well. The vet thinks he had a traumatic event of some kind when he was little and the permanent tooth buds were forming so they didn't form properly. I feed him a mix of some dry kibble plus a canned stew (both from Wysong) twice a day, plus occasional dog treats for doing tricks or "going outside" like he should (ah yes, training all the time). But the food and treats are all healthy and good quality.
Good luck!
