Understanding Dental Abscesses
A dental abscess is a painful bacterial infection that creates a pocket of pus around the tooth or gums. If not addressed promptly, it can spread, affecting surrounding teeth, gums, and even your overall health. Common causes include untreated tooth decay, gum disease, or trauma to the tooth.
