See dentist: See a dentist and get your infected tooth treated. Antibiotics alone will not cure abscessed tooth. It will bring the swelling down for awhile but not cure it. You still have an infection. Get to a dentist.

See dentist: See your dentist as soon as possible. They may need to change your antibiotic. You need to have this reevaluated because swelling and blisters may indicate worsening infection.

See a dentist ASAP: The tooth infection won't go away without treatment and the infection may spread to your jaw, cheeks, sinus and to other areas of your body. Dentist will treat a tooth abscess by treating the cause and getting rid of the infection. Do not delay. Good luck.
