Text B. Acute Alveolar Abscess
This is an extremely painful condition. The affected tooth becomes loose and very tender to the slightest pressure. There is a continual throbbing pain and the surrounding gum is red and swollen. Frequently the whole side of the face is involved in inflammatory swelling and the patient may have a raised temperature. The tooth is so tender that it cannot be used for eating. Thus acute alveolar abscess may show all the classical features of acute inflammation: pain, swelling, redness, heat, loss of function and raised body temperature.
Pulp death is sometimes followed y development of a chronic alveolar abscess instead. This gives rise to very little pain and most patients are quite unaware of its presence. The relative freedom from pain does not last indefinitely, however, as a chronic alveolar abscess is always liable to turn into an acute abscess at any time.
It should now be clear that pulpitis is followed by pulp death and this leads eventually to an acute alveolar abscess either directly or via a chronic abscess.
