Dental abscess
Dental abscess: what to do and when to see a dentist?
A sudden, intense toothache that seems to throb with your heartbeat — and sometimes a swollen cheek. That often points to a dental abscess. It’s an infection that can be very painful and requires prompt care. The good news: with the right steps and appropriate treatment, the situation can usually be brought under control effectively.
