Is is a abscessed tooth?

If a tooth is abscessed, it means the infection has entered or spread to the pulp, the innermost part of your tooth containing nerves and blood vessels. With an abscess, there's not just inflammation, there's an active infection. The infection can spread from there into the tooth root and jawbone, causing pain in those areas, too.

The pain of an abscessed tooth is usually worse at night because during sleep, you tend to swallow less often, which allows saliva to remain in contact with the infected area longer than usual. Other signs and symptoms of an abscessed tooth include:
• Swelling in the face, neck, or jaw
• Pain, redness, or tenderness in the affected area
• Fever
• A bad taste in your mouth (from pus)
• Bad breath
• Pain that increases when you chew or biting down on something hard (known as biting pain)
• Swollen gums around the tooth
An abscessed tooth is a dental emergency and will require antibiotics, root canal therapy, or extraction to stop the infection. It will not heal on its own.

Our practice utilizes state-of-the-art, small volume cone-beam CT (computed tomography) technology that provides highly accurate, 3-D radiographic images for the diagnosis, planning and treatment of endodontic disease. This allows Dr . Scott three-dimensional visualization of teeth, bone, sinuses and surrounding structures with minimal radiation to the patient, enabling a level of anatomical accuracy and patient care not possible with 2-D technologies (regular dental x-rays).
