Yes. If you have any concern, see your dentist. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

You could have an abscess from an infected tooth as well as an abscess from gum [ periodontal disease]. Both need attention now before your face swells up.
