Possible abscess/infected tooth- can it wait 48 hours?
I woke up this morning 5/13 with slight swelling on my lower right jaw and very mild pain (really more like discomfort). I had a deep cavity filled in that area a year or so ago. My dentist at the time made it seem like it could likely need a root canal eventually. It’s swollen a little more throughout the day, but nothing crazy. I happen to have a dentist appointment on Friday 5/15- but I’m spiraling that I need to find a way to get it looked at sooner? Any advice is helpful. Really just want to know if I’m not in pain and don’t have a fever or severe swelling- can it wait another day and a half until my dentist appt Friday 5/15 morning.
