Are You Experiencing Tooth Abscess Symptoms?

Are You Experiencing Tooth Abscess Symptoms?

If you’re experiencing the pain and discomfort of an abscessed tooth, you can find relief through root canal therapy. A root canal can end your infection so your tooth can heal. Contrary to what people may think, root canals are not complex, painful treatments. They’re a means of relieving tooth pain and restoring your oral health. You can learn more about root canal therapy at Frisco Elm Dental in Little Elm, Texas.

What Happens When You Get an Infected Tooth?

Tooth infections generally start on the outside of your tooth or gums and work their way inward. Left untreated, the infection can spread to the inner chamber of your tooth, damaging the pulp, nerves, and connective tissue. Once the pulp has been compromised, your options are limited. If the tooth can be saved, Dr. Vidya Suri may recommend root canal therapy to keep the infection from spreading to healthy teeth or other parts of your body.

During the course of your infection, your tooth may develop an abscess – a small pocket filled with pus – at the end of the tooth root. This is a serious condition that needs to be treated immediately.

Root Canal Tooth Abscess Symptoms

Pain is one of the most obvious signs of an abscessed tooth. You may feel throbbing pain that extends from your tooth to your jaw, neck, or ear. 

Other symptoms include:

  • Fever
  • Pain when you bite or chew food
  • Tooth sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures
  • Swollen, tender gums
  • Facial or neck swelling that causes difficulty swallowing or breathing
  • Swollen lymph nodes
  • Foul odor or taste in your mouth
