Yes, a tooth infection can cause swelling in the face and neck. This occurs when the infection spreads from the tooth to the surrounding tissues, leading to inflammation and accumulation of pus. The swelling may be accompanied by pain, redness, and fever, indicating that medical attention is necessary to treat the infection and prevent further complications.
