why is one of my cheek swelling and how can I fix it?!


Question: Why is one of my cheek swelling and how can I fix it?
When I was little, my face shape looked normal but now right side of my cheek is swelling that it makes my face look fat(but right side only and there's no pain) my teeth looks pretty straight so I never really thought about getting braces when I was little but maybe because of that now my chin looks narrow that every time I smile, it look so unbalanced. I also get some people telling me only right side of my cheek looks big and swelling and I hate it but I don't know how to fix it. Does anybody know how to fix this? If I get braces, does my face goes back to normal? Because of my chin and cheek my face look unbalanced now. It used to not look like this and looks like it's getting worse! This is really serious for me so please help me.

Answers:

I would suggest a visit to your family doctor first. He may be able to determine the cause of the "swelling" and recommend treatment. Really, it could be something serious that has nothing to do with your teeth. See your doctor!



Getting braces doesn't have much to do with straight teeth. It can correct other problems that the untrained eye can't see.

Talk to a dentist first, then see a dermatologist. It might just be the way you're "made".

Braces won't take swelling down.
