dc.description.abstractPurpose: The purpose of this study was to prospectively evaluate a series of patients with severe odontogenic abscess. Patients and Methods: In this study, we retrospectively evaluated patients with odontogenic abscess treated at the Oral and Maxillofacial Department of Dicle University during a ten-year period between 1998 and 2008. In this study 549 patients were included. Among the patients, 324 (59.0%) were males and 225 (41.0%) were females. Standardized data collection included surgical and medical treatment, complications and clinical features information. Appropriate descriptive statistics were computed. Results: In 10 years (from 1998 to 2008) 549 patients were treated. Among the patients, 324 (59.0%) were males and 225 (41.0%) were females. Patients were treated by 67% (368) extraoral drainage and 33% (181) intraoral drainage. The most common abscess formation sites were mandibular posterior (74.8%-441 case), maxillar posterior (9.6%-53 case); maxillar anterior (8.9%-49 case) and mandibular anterior (6.5%-36 case) regions. Conclusions: This study indicated that severe odontogenic abscess can be life threatening. Intra oral and extra oral drainage may be useful for successful treatment of extensive odontogenic infection, which can be life threatening when medical therapy is ineffective.en_US
