A tooth abscess is a pocket of pus (infection). It damages oral tissues and can spread to other areas of your body, causing serious health issues in some cases. An abscessed tooth won’t heal on its own and requires treatment from a dental healthcare provider. A tooth abscess is a pocket of pus from a bacterial infection in your gums. An abscess usually looks like a red, swollen bump, boil or pimple. It affects the involved tooth, but the infection can also spread to surrounding bone and neighboring teeth. Abscesses can occur in different places around a tooth for different reasons. Left untreated, a tooth abscess can spread to your jawbone, the soft tissues of your face and neck, and beyond. In extremely rare cases, the infection can travel to your heart (endocarditis) and brain (bacterial meningitis).
