The periodontal abscess is an acute destructive process in the periodontium resulting in localized collections of pus communicating with the oral cavity through the gingival sulcus or other periodontal sites and not arising from the tooth pulp.

But they can also be caused by mononucleosis (also called mono), or tooth and gum infections. A statistical difference was found between the utility of treating a Data previously reported on treatment prognosis and direct "out-of-pocket" costs were used in a decision-tree and economic analysis Results The Standard Gamble utilities for the restoration of a mandibular 1st molar with either the conventional crown (CC), single- tooth-implant (STI), conventional dental bridge (CDB) or removable-partial-denture (RPD) were 74.47, 78.60, 76.22, 64.80 respectively (p 0.05). Methods Forty school teachers ranked their preferences for conventional crown with a post and core technique, a single tooth implant, a conventional dental bridge, and a partial removable denture using a standard gamble and willingness to pay. We measured patients' dental-health-state utilities and ranking preferences of the treatment options for these dental problems. Little is know about the utility patients attach to the different treatment options for an endontically abscessed mandibular molar and maxillary incisor. Decisions about the range of treatment options (conventional crown with a post and core technique (CC), a single tooth implant (STI), a conventional dental bridge (CDB), and a partial removable denture (RPD)) have to balance the prognosis, utility and cost. The management of an endodontically abscessed tooth: patient health state utility, decision-tree and economic analysisīackground A frequent encounter in clinical practice is the middle-aged adult patient complaining of a toothache caused by the spread of a carious infection into the tooth's endodontic complex. This suggests that teeth with a history of periodontal abscess can be treated and maintained for several years. The frequency of periodontal abscess and tooth loss per patient was greater in the downhill and extreme downhill response groups than the well-maintained group. More furcated teeth were lost than nonfurcated teeth and teeth given a hopeless prognosis were lost more consistently than those given a questionable prognosis in all groups. A total of 109 teeth were affected by periodontal abscess of which 49 (45%) teeth were lost and 60 (55%) were successfully maintained over an average of 12.5 years (5 to 29 years).
Forty-two of the 114 patients were identified as having one or more periodontal abscesses. Patients were grouped according to the number of teeth lost following active periodontal treatment into well-maintained (0 to 3), downhill (4 to 9), and extreme downhill (10 to 23) groups. Other parameters evaluated were age gender number of teeth present and missing at the initial, reevaluation, and last periodontal recall visit initial periodontal prognosis furcation involvement non-surgical and surgical periodontal therapy and reasons for tooth loss.
The criteria for inclusion in the study included having a history of moderate to advanced periodontitis, being on 3 to 6 month recall periodontal maintenance care, and completion of active periodontal therapy prior to October 1987. A total of 114 patients were selected from the active periodontal recall schedule of a single periodontist at The University of Iowa College of Dentistry. This retrospective study focused on the frequency of tooth loss due to periodontal abscess among 42 patients who were treated by a single clinician over a 5- to 29-year period.
