The accumulation of pus in or around the root of a tooth is known as tooth abscess. An abscessed tooth can be agonizingly painful and may cause the affected tooth to loosen. Dulling the pain and trying to kill the bacteria are the first cause of action. So What are the symptoms of a tooth abscess?
- throbbing pain in the affected tooth and severe pain on touching, on biting and chewing
- red, tender swelling of the gum over the root of the tooth and loosening of the affected tooth
- release of foul-tasting pus into the mouth
- If the infection spreads to surrounding tissues, your face may become swollen and fever can develop.
