How long does it take a tooth infection to enter the blood stream?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
By the time you know: your bloodstream knew it before you. If you really have gangrene go get your mouth evaluated ASAP and get the underlying probem treated as it may contribute to significant health issues. Go to a community health center if financial baers are an issue.
