How To Treat The Swelling Formed Part Of Wisdom Teeth Erection?

i had a very bad absess tooth and wisdom teeth coming in
Okay so I have had this absess tooth for years and never found time to go to the dentist between work and 2 kids. Well my wisdom teeth have started coming in the past year as well....At first my tooth would ache and hurt before any swelling. Now my face is swelling up and it feels like theres a big rock in my jaw and my tooth does not hurt. Has the infection spread to my jaw? Help

Hi! I have gone through your query.

Pericoronitis has spread to the masticatory spaces.Visit your dentist for the removal of the offending tooth. He will give a course of antibiotics to reduce the infection followed by removal.A x-ray of the tooth is necessary to decide on a surgical removal or a normal extraction.
