Abstract

Treating acute infections in the maxillofacial region requires a multidisciplinary approach. In this paper we are presenting a case and how we treated it while also reviewing literature. The discussion about the use of short-course versus long-course antibiotic treatments in these particular cases is also reviewed both by the literature and by what the everyday practice has taught us. The overall result is that odontogenic infections require a very fast and aggressive treatment to not allow it to spread and cause potential life-threatening complications.
