Dental abscess

Hi all

This weekend I've been in agony, tooth started throbbing (painless) on sat evening.
Sunday throbbing with pain and yesterday terrible pain.
Manged to get an dentist appointment for this morning. This morning when I woke up the left side of my face had swollen up aswell.
Went to my appointment and had treatment for a dental abscess so the pain has now stopped 😬
Just wondering from from any of you lovely people in my phones experience, how long this may take for the swelling to go down? I did ask the dentist but she said it can depend.
So if this has happened to anyone else, could I please get a time scale?

Every time I've had one it's been about 3-4 days on antibiotics with it fully gone by day 7.

Thankyou.
I've had the abscess drained this morning and have been given oral antibiotics aswell. But my face looks horrid
