About Dental Infections & Abscesses
A dental abscess is a pocket of pus caused by a bacterial infection, often stemming from an untreated cavity, gum disease, or trauma to the tooth.
Signs of a possible infection include:
- Intense, throbbing tooth pain
- Swelling in the gums, face, or jaw
- Bad breath or foul taste in the mouth
- Fever or general discomfort
At Valley Urgent Dental, we diagnose and treat the infection fast—often draining the abscess and prescribing antibiotics or performing a root canal or extraction if necessary. Your health and comfort are our top priorities.
