[|Human|] Hello! My 11 year old son went to the dentist and has an abscess tooth . We made an appt to return next week and get the tooth pulled. Luckily, its a baby tooth. I was just wondering how painful this is going to be for him. Also, I noticed tonight his cheek is a little swollen. Is there something I can do to relieve the pain and swelling. Should I call the dentist back?
[|AI|]  Hi no need to worry about the extraction procedure being painful. Its totally painful after the administration of local anesthesia. And It's important to get infected teeth extracted at the earliest to prevent spread of infection to the adjacent teeth or in your sons' case to the permanent teeth. Swelling you are seeing is because of the abscess. Give amoxycillin250mg three times a day along with paracetamol and nimesulide to him. It will help in pain. Wishing him speedy recovery with best regards Chat Doctor.
