Suggest Treatment For Swelling In Face After Cavity Filling
My daughter age 5 was going to have a cavity filled she got the injection in her gums then didn t go through with the filling. This was done over 4hrs ago and her face is a bit swollen with her lipslightly drooping on the side she has the local done.
Thanks for your query on health care magic From history it seems your child is injected with local anesthetic so that she does not have pain during cavity filling. after local anesthetic injection for dental procedure it is common to have some swelling and drooling of saliva. You need not to worry for this because it will go by itself after few hours. Regards.- dr deepak
