Do I have a dental infection
I had a tooth filled 2 weeks ago and a lot of throbbing of my nerver has been going on by that tooth. Going on into the 3rd week, I woke up and noticed my face on the side the tooth was pulled is swollen. What is wrong and how can I resolve this problem?
You should contact or visit your dentist as soon as possible. Tell him/her the problem and I bet, he knows what to do next.

I agree with sue2324. It sounds like you have a dental abscess forming from your filling. You should go back immediately to your dentist and get it taken care of. A root canal sounds most likely and then possibly a crown afterwards.
you have an abcess and need a root canal
