Gregory,

Bactrim is not the most effective antibiotic for dental infections.Most hospitals offer a dental clinic based on ability to pay or charity care. I understand the challenges of being financially strapped but even taken as prescribed this class drug may not completely focus on the complex infections encountered in dental sensitive organisms. For other types of infections the usual dosage of this drug is two tablets taken twice daily for ten days or otherwise directed by your prescriber. I hope that helps some. Regards.

I too have had a BAD tooth infection where my face was swollen and my ear was beginning to hurt. All I had was the IP/272 pills. I have never had an antibiotic that worked so fast in clearing it up. Within 24 hrs the swelling was down at least 75%... no more tooth pain and my ear no longer hurt at all. Within 72 hrs the cheek swelling was pretty much all gone. The area above the tooth itself (on the gum) was still a bit swollen but didn't hurt much at all.
