Hello and welcome.
Thanks for sharing your concern.
It appears there was an abscess developed palatally(that is in the roof of mouth.
your dentist must have drained it out.Allow it to heal.It is more important to treat the underlying cause first.Please discuss it with your dentist it might require a root canal too.
Antibiotics should help in recovering fast.
Hope it helps.
Thanks.
Take care.
