See Dentist: You have severe infection that requires immediate rx. "black knots" may or may not be associated w the infected teeth. See dentist immediately.

Serious dental : Dental abscesses can become a life threatening problem. You should see a dentist, an oral surgeon or go to the emergency department to get evaluated before this gets worse.
