Tooth abscess incision

A tooth abscess consists of a small amount of matter concentrated in a cavity created by destroying tissues and surrounded by a membrane. In case of abscess, gums are reddened and sore if pressed, cheeks are often swollen, teeth may become unstable and chewing is painful.
Sometimes a fistula may emerge on the gums, i.e. the external evidence of the infective process producing purulent matter.
One of the simple oral surgery operations carried out in our dental surgery envisages the incision of dental abscesses, their cleaning and sterilisation. As a consequence, tissues quickly become less sore and swollen. In the most serious cases of abscess, an additional oral or parenteral (intramuscular) antibiotic therapy may be implemented.
