  2. Alveolar osteitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alveolar_osteitis

    The most common location of dry socket: in the socket of an extracted mandibular third molar (wisdom tooth). Since alveolar osteitis is not primarily an infection, there is not usually any pyrexia (fever) or cervical lymphadenitis (swollen glands in the neck), and only minimal edema (swelling) and erythema (redness) is present in the soft tissues surrounding the socket.

  3. Pericoronitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pericoronitis

    Pericoronitis is inflammation of the soft tissues surrounding the crown of a partially erupted tooth, [1] including the gingiva (gums) and the dental follicle. [2] The soft tissue covering a partially erupted tooth is known as an operculum, an area which can be difficult to access with normal oral hygiene methods.

  4. Cysts of the jaws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cysts_of_the_jaws

    The high prevalence of tooth impactions and dental infections that occur in the bones of the jaws is also significant to explain why cysts are more common at these sites. Cysts that arise from tissue(s) that would normally develop into teeth are referred to as odontogenic cysts. Other cysts of the jaws are termed non-odontogenic cysts. [2]

  5. Periapical cyst - Wikipedia

    This infection is what causes necrosis of the pulp. [4] Larger cysts may cause bone expansion or displace roots. Discoloration of the affected tooth may also occur. Patient will present negative results to electric and ice test of the affected tooth but will be sensitive to percussion. Surrounding gingival tissue may experience lymphadenopathy.

  6. Dentigerous cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dentigerous_cyst

    The treatment of choice for dentigerous cyst is enucleation along with extraction of the impacted teeth. [21] If eruption of the unerupted tooth is considered feasible, the tooth may be left in place after partial removal of the cyst wall. Orthodontic treatment may subsequently be required to assist eruption.

  7. Dental abscess - Wikipedia

    Also infection can spread down the tissue spaces to the mediastinum, causing significant consequences on the vital organs such as the heart. Another complication, usually from upper teeth, is a risk of sepsis traveling through pathways to which it can possibly lead to endocarditis, brain abscess (extremely rare), or meningitis (also rare).

  9. Toothache - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toothache

    Pericoronitis is inflammation of the soft tissues surrounding the crown of a partially erupted tooth. [25] The lower wisdom tooth is the last tooth to erupt into the mouth, and is, therefore, more frequently impacted, or stuck, against the other teeth. This leaves the tooth partially erupted into the mouth, and there frequently is a flap of gum ...
