Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, you have mentioned that you have Abcess in tooth now you have swelling on face for this you have to go to dentist and go for Oral Examination done, go for investigations IOPA and of tooth is decayed then go for Extraction and if tooth is Carious then go for Root Canal treatment,

Dont do Hot formentation , take medication for pain One Tablet Diclomol SP twice daily and Consult dentist as Early as possible and go for treatment

Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health
