In this episode of EENT101, host Dr. Christina G. Gonzales, DMSc, MPAS, PA-C, covers Dental Abscess, a localized collection of pus in the tooth or surrounding tissues caused by bacterial infection. You’ll learn to differentiate periapical, periodontal, and pericoronal abscesses, recognize warning signs of spreading infection such as facial swelling and trismus, and review management—from incision and drainage to antibiotics and urgent dental or surgical referral.
