Toothache: This swelling in your face may indicate tooth infection/abscess formation and will require dental attention as soon as possible.

Infected teeth: If teeth that are hurting are on the right side also then the pain, swelling,and headache are indicative of infected teeth with possible pus collection. You need to see a dentist right away to treat the problem before it gets worse and serious.
