Swelling in the mouth and face is typically linked to infected teeth, dental abscesses, gum infections, denture irritation or ulcers. During your emergency assessment, our Chester dentists will carefully check the area, identify the source of the problem and explain the best next steps.

Wonderful dental care for my young daughters with both having teeth extractions today! Thank you so much the care and attention they receive by the staff is fabulous. The tooth fairy is going to be very busy tonight!Posted on David HTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After a lot of moving around over the years I hadn't been to the dentist in quite a long time so was quite apprehensive when I decided it was time to go again as I knew things weren't in a great way! Despite this, there was absolutely no judgement from any of the team and they put me completely at ease from that first meeting helping to explain things simply and clearly. I have now been for consultations, multiple hygienist visits and a filling and it has been the same friendly, relaxed and professional service every time. I cannot thank the team at Tudor House enough for helping me get back on the right track and I only wish I'd met them sooner. Worth every pennyPosted on Tolga DemirelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend this practice highly enough. From the moment I walked in, I was made to feel completely at ease, and the whole experience was far better than I ever expected a dental visit to be. Milly looked after me and she was absolutely wonderful. Her hands are as gentle as cotton wool — I genuinely didn't feel a thing throughout. She is skilled, calm and reassuring, and she takes the time to explain everything so you always know exactly what's happening. If you're someone who feels nervous about the dentist, you'll be in the safest possible hands here. The whole team deserves a mention too. Every single member of staff was warm, friendly and genuinely kind, and that welcoming atmosphere makes such a difference. I'd also like to say a special thank you to Amy, who was lovely and went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable and well looked after. It's rare to find a practice where the care, the professionalism and the warmth all come together so naturally. I left feeling relaxed, well cared for and genuinely grateful. 100% recommended — thank you all so much.Posted on alissa laundyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just signed up, so had my son's first appointment. He is autistic and i must say, they were absolutely amazing with him. So patient with him and understanding of his sensory needs! Amazing!Posted on Elizabeth HewittTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. All staff welcoming and friendly,Posted on Louisa RobertsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend this dental practice, I have very bad dentist anxiety due to past experiences, they were very attentive and made sure I felt safe and secure the entire time. I called at 9:15 am and by 10am I was in the chair. The procedure itself was done very well, Millie was amazing, I will definitely make this my regular dentist. Thank you so much to the team for helping me today, I will definitely be back for my checkup ☺️Posted on Ricki HillierTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brilliant dentist. My children come here and the staff are always friendly, patient and reassuring. My daughter recently had a filling and they made the whole experience calm and stress-free for her. Would definitely recommend.

Directions:
Located off the A51 and A54, Tudor House Dental is incredibly convenient for patients driving from Chester City Centre or from Tarporley. Local bus routes run directly past our clinic, too.
Yes. Facial swelling can be a sign of infection and should be evaluated urgently, especially if it is getting worse, more painful, or accompanied by a toothache.
Go to A&E immediately if swelling is affecting your breathing, swallowing, eyes, or neck, or if you have a high fever or feel seriously unwell. You can call 111 for advice if you’re unsure.
A swollen gum is typically caused by trapped food, gum infection, decay, an abscess, trauma, a broken tooth, a wisdom tooth problem or irritation from a denture or sharp edge.
Mild irritation can sometimes settle, but should not be ignored. If there is swelling, pus, pain, bleeding or a bad taste, book an appointment at Tudor House Dental Surgery.
Antibiotics may be needed in some cases, but they do not always treat the source of the problem. You may still need cleaning, drainage, or dental treatment to prevent the infection from returning.
A gum abscess may look like a small pimple, lump or swelling on the gum. It can feel tender, release pus, and leave a bad taste in the mouth.
Painful ulcers can be urgent if they make it difficult to eat or speak.
Most minor mouth ulcers heal within 1 to 2 weeks. If an ulcer lasts longer than 2 weeks, keeps returning, bleeds easily, feels hard or is getting bigger, book an appointment at Tudor House Dental Surgery.
Keep the area clean, rinse gently with warm salty water, avoid chewing on the painful side and take suitable pain relief if needed. Do not try to burst swelling or drain an abscess yourself.
