If Ur face is swollen U need to get to a dentist ASAP. That's an infection that they can give U antibiotics for then treat the tooth that is giving U issues. If it's infected (abscessed/swollen) it will not get better on it's own.

This is kinda weird, but my teeth are crumbling out of my mouth! I have exposed nerves all over and the other night I was eating some cooked rice and I broke another tooth! The broken pieces and the what's left in my mouth, crumble like chalk.

You need to get it sorted somehow. I am from Australia &our health system is quite different so I'm not sure how hard it will be for you. Serious infection coming from a bad tooth can cause growth problems for bubba or set off preterm labour.

Why won't a dentist prescribe antibiotics or pull a infected tooth

This sounds gross but it will help, I do it whenever I get a toothache, get a clove of garlic chop it up really small then put it on a spoon and take it like medicine with water do it once a day and within 2 or 3 days the pain will be gone or eased, it helps get rid of infection which usually is what causes the pain

You need amox 500 its an antibiotic but ask your prenatal doctor bc I domt know if you can take antibiotics when your pregnant ... im a dental assistant and it sounds like you have an absess ans need a root canal ... go to thee emeegency room bc yhat infection is serious you will need a xray of the tooth that is hurting you to see how big the infecrion is. Please get to a doctor soon! They will miggt need to drain the infection if it is visable on your gums. Hope this helps
