How To Get Emergency Relief for a Swollen Jaw

Fast Swollen Jaw Relief Services in Miami, FL

A swollen jaw is when something happens to your mouth or lymph nodes to make your jaw bigger than usual.

When it comes to swollen jaws, patients tend to experience pain, tenderness, and/or stiffness. Swollen jaws are irritating, but the professionals at Implant Center of Miami can pinpoint the cause, so you can be relieved.

What Causes a Swollen Jaw?

Swollen glands. If your lymph nodes become infected, they'll swell up in your neck. They'll be tender to the touch, but they should return to normal once the viral or bacterial infection goes away.

Injury. If you fall on your face or sustain any kind of trauma to it, it may result in a swollen jaw.

Tooth abscess. If bacteria enters the pulp of your tooth, it'll create a pocket of pus. If an abscessed tooth is left untreated, the infection could spread to your jaw or other teeth.

Tooth extraction. Your jaw might swell a bit after tooth extraction. This is normal for the first few days following an extraction.

How Can They Be Prevented?

A swollen jaw is usually the result of infection or injury. To reduce the risk of receiving one, you just need to be careful. Don't take any unnecessary risks and stay healthy to avoid infection.

How Can You Get Relief?

There are multiple ways to treat a swollen jaw. These include:

Eating only soft food.

Applying an ice pack relieves some of the swelling.

Taking medication to reduce inflammation.

There are also medical treatments that can treat the underlying causes of a swollen jaw. These include:

Antibiotics for the infection.

Surgery to remove whatever's causing it, such as tonsils.

Cancer treatment if necessary.
