Hello, Abscessed tooth has to be treated as early as possible. Root canal treatment or extraction of tooth has to be done depending on severity of lesion. Take complete course of antibiotics. Abscess has to be drained and curetted completely. Maintain oral care. Gargle using chlorhexidine mouthrinses. Take care.
