A member asked:

Doctors, do you think i can die if i don't get a tooth infection treated?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

While unlikely...: While unlikely, there is the potential for systemic involvement; particularly for mandibular posterior teeth. Serious infection in lower molars can result in Ludwig's Angina, a life threatening infection. See your dentist, as infected teeth are at least debilitating.
