It can indeed, depending on what bacterium is causing the infection. However, if you're self-medicating, you should be advised that with teeth, the infection can more easily encapsulate inside the tooth and/or jaw, which makes it hard for systemic antibiotics to reach it. And these infections can be very serious indeed. Be careful and have a dentist at least look at this one. If you can't see a dentist, you can always show up at an Emergency Room -- they have to see you for this.
