Cerebral Abscess Potentially of Odontogenic Origin [PDF]

Case Reports in Dentistry, 2015
Odontogenic origins are rarely implicated in the formation of brain abscesses. The relative paucity of this kind of infection and the difficulty in matching the causative microorganisms of a brain abscess to an odontogenic source can explain the late ...

Migratory abscess of the middle ear resulting from an odontogenic infection: an unusual case report

The Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology, 2018
Infections of odontogenic origin are the commonly encountered diseases in their routine practice by head and neck specialists. Their spread to adjacent fascial spaces may follow as sequelae of untreated odontogenic infections, along a predictable route ...

Complications of Severe Odontogenic Infections: A Review

Biology, 2022
Severe odontogenic infections are routinely treated with little associated morbidity and mortality. Improvements in surgical techniques, antibiotic treatments, and imaging modalities have made associated complications exceedingly rare.

Oropharyngeal abscesses with repeated health care visits – the characteristics in patients with odontogenic and peritonsillar abscesses

Head & Face Medicine
Purpose Deep neck infection is a potentially life-threatening condition, and thus, early identification and treatment are essential. This study explored the diagnostic challenges and preceding treatment in patients with repeated healthcare contacts due ...

Patient-induced progressive facial subcutaneous emphysema masquerading as odontogenic abscess. [PDF]

BMJ Case Rep, 2021
Facial subcutaneous emphysema (SE) is an uncommon sequelae of dental procedures and often attributed to the use of high-speed air-driven handpieces during surgical extractions, forcing air through fascial spaces.

Microbiome of Odontogenic Abscesses [PDF]

Microorganisms, 2021
Severe odontogenic abscesses are regularly caused by bacteria of the physiological oral microbiome. However, the culture of these bacteria is often prone to errors and sometimes does not result in any bacterial growth. Furthermore, various authors found completely different bacterial spectra in odontogenic abscesses.

Odontogenic abscess mimicking acute dacryocystitis. [PDF]

BMJ Case Rep, 2017
A middle-aged poorly controlled diabetic man developed left-sided orbital and facial swelling several days after extraction of a left upper wisdom tooth. The clinical impression was that of acute dacryocystitis. Opening the skin above the lacrimal sac failed to reveal an inflamed sac establishing the diagnosis of deep facial cellulitis.

Clinical Relevance of the Microbiome in Odontogenic Abscesses [PDF]

Biology, 2021
Odontogenic abscesses are usually caused by bacteria of the oral microbiome. However, the diagnostic culture of these bacteria is often prone to errors and sometimes fails completely due to the fastidiousness of the relevant bacterial species. The question arises whether additional pathogen diagnostics using molecular methods provide additional ...

Venous malformation differential diagnosis with an odontogenic abscess on a pediatric patient. Case report and review of the literature. [PDF]

J Clin Exp Dent
Venous malformations (VMs) are aberrant venous vessel angiogenesis present at birth. However, they can become apparent later in life, debuting in early childhood. This poses a clinical quest for surgeons, dentists, and pediatricians, as they might appear

Empirical antimicrobial therapy of acute dentoalveolar abscess [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2009
Background/Aim. The most common cause of acute dental infections are oral streptococci and anaerobe bacteria. Acute dentoalveolar infections are usually treated surgically in combination with antibiotics.
