CLICK HERE FOR THE PROFESSIONAL VERSION. A periapical abscess is a collection of pus at the root of a tooth, usually caused by an infection that has spread from a tooth to the surrounding tissues.
To reflect this, sometimes the term "lateral (periodontal) abscess" is used. In contrast to a periapical abscess, periodontal abscesses are usually associated with a vital (living) tooth.
Diseased maxillary sinus is seen. The periapical abscess results from an infection of the pulpal tissue causing the pulp to become necrotic. It is formed when pus escapes from walls of the pulp chamber and the root canal(s) through the apical foramen.
A periapical tooth abscess occurs when bacteria invade the dental pulp — the innermost part of the tooth that contains blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue. Bacteria enter through either a dental cavity or a chip or crack in the tooth and spread all the way down to the root.
There are two main types of dental abscess: periodontal abscess — where bacteria infect the gums; and • periapical abscess — where bacteria infect the pulp inside of the tooth (and which is overall the most common type).

A tooth that has an abscess at its root is generally sensitive to touch or pressure. Recommend an X-ray. An X-ray of the aching tooth can help identify an abscess. Your dentist may also use X-rays to determine whether the infection has spread, causing abscesses in other areas.
(C) A radiograph of mandibular right second molar that exhibits, based on location, a “periapical” lesion or radiolucency at the apex of the mesial and distal roots. Some clinicians may describe this as a “periradicular” lesion because of its extensive encompassing of the root structure.
SUMMARY. Acute apical abscess is the most common form of dental abscess and is caused by infection of the root canal of the tooth. It is usually localized intraorally, but in some cases the apical abscess may spread and result in severe complications or even mortality.
A chronic apical abscess is a long-standing periapical inflammation characterized by intermittent discharge of pus through an intraoral sinus tract, with radiolucent signs of periapical osseous destruction [1].
