What causes a neck abscess? A neck abscess occurs during or just after a bacterial or viral infection in the head or neck such as a cold, tonsillitis, sinus infection, or otitis media (ear infection). As an infection worsens, it can spread down into the deep tissue spaces in the neck or behind the throat.
A dental abscess is an infection of the mouth, face, jaw, or throat that begins as a tooth infection. The original cause may be from a deep cavity, periodontal (gum) disease, or from trauma.Such infections are more likely to be caused by poor dental health and can result from lack of proper and timely dental care. In an abscess, bacteria from the tooth can extend into the gums, the cheek, the throat, beneath the tongue, or even into the jaw or facial bones. 2  A dental abscess can become very painful when tissues become inflamed or due to the pressure within the abscess.
