Is a dental abscess an emergency?
A dental abscess is considered a dental emergency and requires immediate attention. If left untreated, the infection can spread and cause severe complications. If you experience symptoms of a dental abscess, such as intense pain, swelling, fever, or difficulty swallowing, you should contact your dentist or seek emergency dental care right away. In some cases, if you cannot reach a dentist, you may need to go to the emergency room for treatment.
