It works to help with an infection in your teeth or gums. I was having really bad tooth pain last week, went to the Dentist & he prescribed Amoxicillin to take away the infection in my gum behind my tooth which has really helped tremendously. No more pain & swelling has gone down in the past few days- Thank Goodness!

Its just the case of you using the wrong medicine to heal something like that or it could be something worse, so I consider going to see a professional.
