Where are the dentists?! This picture is of one of our students with a severe tooth infection. Last week the side of his face was swollen and red. He was literally wincing with pain as he sat in class. I don’t know how he managed to sit through our lectures at all with that type of pain. We started him on Amoxicillin and after a week he has very little pain or swelling. However, this is only a short-term solution to the infection. As you can see from the picture those teeth are in bad shape and at least one needs to come out. We can teach them a lot about teeth but they should really have a professional dentist to help us deal with these types of issues and teach the students what to do in the field.
