Dental abscess - is an infection of the mouth, face, jaw, or throat that begins as a tooth infection or cavity. Most infections can be due to poor dental health and result from poor dental care maintenance.
Dental caries (a tooth cavity) have bacteria that can extend into the gums, cheek, throat, beneath the tongue, or even into the jaw or facial bones. A dental abscess can become very painful when tissues become inflamed. A gum or gingival abscess is the result of infection or trauma to the surface of the gum tissue.
Periodontal abscesses are the result of an infection that has moved deeper into gum areas. Pus collects at the site of the infection and the condition will become progressively more painful until the abscess either ruptures and drains on its own.
