Q

What are the 4 stages of odontogenic infections?

A
  • Inoculation
    • First 3 days of symptoms
    • Mildly tender, soft, doughy swelling
    • This stage is the easiest to tx
  • Cellulitis
    • After 3-5 days, swelling becomes hard, red, indurated, and acutely tender as the infecting mixed flora stimulates intense inflammatory response
    • Dangerous because you don’t know where it will go and it spreads rapidly
  • Abscess
    • 5-7 days after onset, anaerobes predominate, causing liquified abscess in the center of the swollen area
    • Acute abscess is a more mature infection w/ more localized pain, less swelling, nice borders
    • Chronic abscess is slow growing and less serious than cellulitis
  • Resolution
    • When the abscess drains, immune system destroys the infecting bacteria; healing and repair begin
