  • Management of Acute Periodontal Abscess Mimicking Acute Apical Abscess in the Anterior Lingual Region: a Case Report
    Open Access Case Report DOI: 10.7759/cureus.5592 Management of Acute Periodontal Abscess Mimicking Acute Apical Abscess in the Anterior Lingual Region: A Case Report Omar A. Alharbi 1 , Muhammad Zubair Ahmad 1 , Atif S. Agwan 1 , Durre Sadaf 1 1. Conservative Dentistry, Qassim University, College of Dentistry, Buraydha, SAU Corresponding author: Muhammad Zubair Ahmad, [email protected] Abstract Purulent infections of periodontal tissues are known as periodontal abscesses localized to the region of the involved tooth. Due to the high prevalence rate and aggressive symptoms, it is considered a dental emergency; urgent care is mandatory to maintain the overall health and well being of the patient. This case report describes the management of a patient who presented with an acute periodontal abscess secondary to poor oral hygiene. Clinically and radiographically, the lesion was mimicking an acute apical abscess secondary to pulpal necrosis. Periodontal treatment was started after completion of antibiotic therapy. The clinical presentation of the condition and results of the recovery, along with a brief review of relevant literature are discussed. Categories: Pain Management, Miscellaneous, Dentistry Keywords: periodontal abscess, antimicrobial agents, dental pulp test, dental pulp necrosis, apical suppurative periodontitis Introduction Periodontium, as a general term, describes the tissues surrounding and supporting the tooth structure. A localized purulent infection of the periodontal tissues adjacent to a periodontal pocket, also known as a periodontal abscess, is a frequently encountered periodontal condition that may be characterized by the rapid destruction of periodontal tissues [1-2]. The symptoms generally involve severe pain, swelling of the alveolar mucosa or gingiva, a reddish blue or red appearance of the affected tissues, and difficulty in chewing [1-3].

This accepted definition, indicates the need to consider a differential diagnosis to rule out other causes of dental pain before the diagnosis of dentin hypersensitivity is made. The management strategy of this dental problem required a good understanding of the complexity of the condition and the variety of the treatment options. The aim of this review is to inform practitioners about dentin hypersensitivity, to provide a brief overview of the diagnosis, etiology and clinical management of dentin hypersensitivity. We have used PubMed to find relevant literature published up to date. We used combinations of key words like hypersensitivity, dentine, desensitize and dental pain. Keywords: Dentine hypersensitivity; Etiology; Mechanism of are usually patient questionnaires or clinical examinations [14-16].

  • Dental Abscess
    Dental Abscess A dental abscess is a collection of pus in the teeth or gums. This happens when you have an infection in your mouth. Dental abscesses can be very painful and make you feel ill. If you do not treat a dental abscess, it will get worse, and the bone around the abscess could be destroyed. We make every effort to make sure the information is correct (right). However, we cannot be responsible for any actions as a result of using this information. Symptoms If you have a dental abscess, you will feel a throbbing pain in your tooth. The pain may come on quite quickly, and it will get worse the longer it is left. You may find that the pain spreads to the surrounding areas: • Ear • Lower jaw • Your neck on the same side as the painful tooth • Soreness of your tooth and the area around it (especially when biting something). • Your teeth hurt when you have hot or cold food. • A horrible taste in your mouth • Fever (high temperature) You may also feel: • Unwell • It is difficult to open your mouth • It is difficult to swallow. • It is difficult to sleep. We make every effort to make sure the information is correct (right). However, we cannot be responsible for any actions as a result of using this information. Different Types of Dental Abscesses A dental abscess happens when bacteria infects the inside of your tooth. There are 2 different types of abscesses: The most common is called a periapical abscess This happens when you have a hole in the outside layer of your tooth (the enamel).
