Can a dental abscess cause tooth loss?
A dental abscess can lead to tooth loss if the infection severely damages the tooth or surrounding bone. If the abscess is not treated promptly, the bone supporting the tooth can deteriorate, causing the tooth to become loose and eventually fall out or require extraction. Additionally, the infection can spread to other teeth, putting them at risk of decay and loss as well. Early treatment is crucial to prevent tooth loss and other serious complications associated with a dental abscess.
