What to do if your child has toothache and swollen face

Toothache is a common disease. The symptoms include: red and swollen gums, pain when exposed to cold or hot stimuli, swelling of the cheeks, etc. Toothache is mostly caused by infection of the dental pulp (dental nerve) due to gingivitis and periodontitis, caries (cavities) or fractured teeth. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that toothache is caused by exogenous wind evil, excessive stomach fire, kidney deficiency and fire, and tooth erosion. Gingivitis is a common periodontal disease. It is caused by not paying attention to oral hygiene, long-term stimulation of the teeth by soft plaque and hard tartar formed by food residues and bacteria around the teeth, incorrect brushing habits, vitamin deficiency and other reasons.

Toothache is the main symptom of this disease. In the early stages, the gums will itch, feel uncomfortable, and cause bad breath, followed by redness, swelling, looseness, easy bleeding, and pain, which will recur repeatedly. Over time, the periodontal membrane between the gums and the roots of the teeth is destroyed, forming a bag called a periodontal pocket. Pus often overflows from the pocket, and the inflammation continues to expand, which may become a periodontal abscess. The condition worsens, with local pain and swelling. It is hard at first, then becomes soft and has a fluctuating feeling. It may break through on its own and pus may flow out. After the pus flows out, the pain may be relieved, or it may recur and be very painful.
