Hello, Kevon! How are you doing? I'm very sorry about the dental issue.

If it is an infection, it will require an antibiotic, so you'll need to see your dentist. You can't just take any old leftover one that you already have, because if you don't have enough to complete a full course of treatment and eradicate the infection, you run the risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria.

Additionally, whatever underlying problem has caused the infection will still be there, so the infection will just keep coming back. You need to have your dentist correct the problem.

Is there anything else I can help with?
