Overview: What You Need to Know

A dental abscess is an accumulation of pus caused by a bacterial infection within a tooth or the surrounding periodontal pocket. It frequently presents as a painful, fluctuant swelling on the gum tissue, accompanied by facial swelling, throbbing pain, and a feverish feeling.

A dental infection will not go away on its own. Left untreated, bacteria can spread into deep facial fascial spaces, the sinus cavities, or the bloodstream, creating serious medical emergencies.

Our Anaheim dental team treats dental abscesses promptly by establishing drainage, prescribing targeted antibiotics when indicated, and addressing the root cause through endodontic therapy or extraction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions About Dental Abscess & Infection Treatment

Clear, honest answers to help you make informed decisions about your oral healthcare in Anaheim.

No. Antibiotics temporarily control the spread of bacteria through the bloodstream, but they cannot reach inside the dead tooth to eliminate the source of the infection. Mechanical dental treatment is always required.
