I don't know what's going on with my mouth but my jaw is hurting terribly. I can't eat anything, my jaw is all swollen and I didn't sleep a wink because of the pain. I brush and floss every day so I never expected this. I had a check up 6 months ago and everything was fine.

I called my dentist but only got the answering service. Any ideas what I should do???? I've tried Ambesol and salt water but nothing has helped.
