A dental abscess is a serious oral condition caused by a bacterial infection, leading to a pocket of pus in the teeth, gums, or surrounding bone. It can cause severe pain, swelling, and fever, and if left untreated, the infection can spread to other areas of the body.

We begin with a thorough oral examination and may use digital X-rays to determine the location and extent of the abscess.
Local anaesthesia is administered to keep you comfortable during the procedure.
The infected area is carefully opened to allow pus to drain, reducing pressure and pain.
Root Canal Therapy – If the infection is inside the tooth’s pulp, the canal is cleaned, disinfected, and sealed.
Gum Abscess Treatment – For gum infections, the area is cleaned, and any debris or plaque is removed.
Tooth Extraction – In cases where the tooth cannot be saved, it is removed to prevent the spread of infection.
If needed, antibiotics are prescribed to control the infection and prevent further complications.
If the tooth is saved, a crown or filling may be placed to restore its strength and function.
