It is recommended to go to the hospital in time for examination and treatment.
1. Wisdom teeth are at the back of the jaw and often form peri-coronary inflammation during eruption. Due to its position connecting with the buccal space and the pterygomandibular space, the formation of abscess is especially likely to cause infection of the buccal space and the pterygomandibular space, which will appear as a swollen parotid gland.
2. Periodontal abscess often affects the middle and upper part of the gums, but when it is not controlled in time and the body’s resistance is poor, it will affect the overall root of the tooth and cause interstitial infection.
3. Periapical abscesses are usually formed by destroying the alveolar bone at the tip of the root, which can cause swelling and pain in the cheek if it continues to develop.
It is recommended to seek medical examination and treatment in case of abnormalities.
