I have a toothache out of this world on just the right side of my mouth and my gums on that side are swollen what can i do to bring the swelling down ?

Antibiotics: This sounds like more than just a tooth infection - this sounds like a dental abscess. I would either see1) a dentist 2) an ENT or 3) go to er. I would get this treated asap!

Dentist: The only thing that will really get the problem taken care of is seeing a dentist who may put you on an antibiotic. In the meantime, cold compresses and Ibuprofen should help with the pain.

See a Dentist!: If you have swelling, that's a clear sign of infection. There's nothing you can do to fix that yourself. It needs to be addressed right away by a dentist. The longer you wait, the more likely you are to have increasing pain and a more difficult and costly fix later. Get that taken care of before the swelling and pain get worse. This can be serious and very uncomfortable if you wait.
