Answer: Swollen Gums? You will have the most swelling typically today. Are you taking any Advil or any other NSAID? Make sure you don't have any sour taste in your mouth or any drainage. Those are your typical signs of infection. Post pictures if you can. Thanks.

Answer: Veneer Temps and Facial Swelling Veneer temporaries should not cause swelling. Any swelling around your mouth or nose should be evaluated by your dentist. Your temporaries should be checked to see that they are not over-bulked as that can cause gum inflammation and bleeding. You should be able to use a floss threader between each tooth in a temporary to keep the area clean and healthy. I'd advise calling your dental office and having the dentist evaluate both the facial swelling and gum irritation. Good luck!!
