Infections in the head and neck area can come from a variety of sources. The most common source is an tooth abscess. Infection follows the path of least resistance, so the location of facial swelling varies depending on which tooth is involved. Everyone responds differently when an infection occurs. Some patients are able to keep the infection localized and under control while in other cases, the infection may spread and cause fever, swelling, sore throat, and a general malaise. It is important to seek consultation whenever an area of pain exists in the mouth, to prevent serious complications from developing. Do not ignore the important signs of pain and fever, as they usually indicate the likelihood of a significant infection. 🏥

We understand the importance of giving, with each patient coming through our doors, we know that even just a few kind words and a shoulder to cry on make the biggest difference in their lives. Today make some time to "give" to some even if it's just a compliment, a smile or a helping hand. 💙
