Dentist, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery,  's  Response
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The possible causes of the swelling could be the infected tooth leading to cellulitis resulting in extension of the swelling to involve cheek and eye region. Consult a oral and maxillofacial surgeon and get Intravenous antibiotics injected. The infection will come down after that the infected teeth can be removed. do not delay, if the infection spreads then it leads to complications like difficulty in breathing and swallowing.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
