Question:
The right side of my face has been swollen off and on for 8 months. I've have seen my doctors several times, they referred me to an allergist thinking I was alleric to seafood but I was not, only dust mites and cock roaches.
I do have sinus problems and felt I had an infection, but the doctors do not think so. They have requested xrays of my sinus, but have not received the results yet. Now I have been referred to a dermatolist and otolaryngoloy.
I am writing you because I have had an upper denture for many years and only a few lower front teeth. Could the denture be causing the swelling on the right side of my face? ... Visitor from MD
Answer:
The denture could cause swelling if it is ill-fitting. Have a new one made and see if the swelling continues.
