thanks for your query, if i am your treating doctor i would suggest you to take radipgraph of the filled teeth and confirm the tooth infection and later i would prescribe antibiotics and analgesics. then if the tooth is infected it has to be treated with RCT. i hope my answer will help you take care.

Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
Actually it looks that the tooth which is filled is infected till its root, means when the tooth has infection till the dentine it is filled normally, but when the infection is till roots a root canal treatment is necessary.
In that case an abscess is formed in relation to that tooth. This swelling can be this abscess only.
So according to me you should go for root canal treatment of that tooth.
Hope it will help you.
