Swelling of left cheek after bell's palsy. there's just 1 white spot dentist saw & said not an abscess. he wants wisdom teeth pulled? are they linked

DOUBTFUL BUT...: I don't think they are linked, but if in doubt, I would get a second opinion.

Trust Dentist: If he says no, then it's most assuredly no. Can't tell over computer what's happening. Your Dentist has the advantage of completing a physical exam. Go with it.

2 separate problems: 1. Bell's palsy is a neurologic weakness and has nothing to do with your swelling of the left cheek. 2. There is a dental infection. This infection will not resolve on its own with home care. See your dentist again for x-rays and investigation. Take care.

No: no link between wisdom tooth, bells palsy and white spot. Now the need for the wisdom tooth extraction and swelling in that area can so I would have it evaluated for risk and need of extraction
