TOOTH WITH SUBMANDIBULAR LOJ ABSCESS
ABSTRACT
Introduction: The bacterial infection, which starts as enamel and dentin caries, progresses through the root canal and reaches the periapical area and then to the anatomical sites with cortical and cancellous bone destruction, indicating the aggressive spread of the endodontic infection.
Purpose: The aim of this study is to share the post-endodontic treatment and follow-up procedures of a right lower molar tooth case that caused submandibular lodge abscess with extraoral fistulization.
Case Report: A 25-year-old male patient who presented with the complaint of pain and swelling in the right lower face region had severe pain up to 3 days ago; It was learned that 3 days ago when his face started to swell, his pain decreased. As a result of the clinical and radiographic evaluation, the diagnosis of fistulized submandibular lodge abscess originating from tooth No. 46 was made and root canal treatment was performed.
Conclusion and Discussion: Long-lasting chronic endodontic infections can infect the anatomical sites of the tooth from the periapical area, along with the increase in pressure as a result of acute exacerbation. In such infections, it is vital to provide drainage through the root canal and/or the lodge area.
