Best Answer

This infection can spread to other teeth and into your blood stream. If it enters the blood it can cause generalized TSS (Toxic Shock Syndrome) or start growing in a convenient corner of the body (like the heart or lungs.) Where it will go once in the blood depends on the bacteria causing the abcess. Call a dentist ASAP! Hope this helps!

How long does it take for a tooth to rot in your mouth?

Lets hope you NEVER wait that long, but it depends on what is wrong with the tooth. And if you have a 'rotting' tooth, that most likely means that it is abcessed, and/or the nerve is also dead, and the purosanguinous drainage can seep into your bloodstream and cause dangerous health issues. Never ignore a tooth problem. My sister had a friend who had an infected upper molar, and he didn't do anything about it for a long time, and when he went into the oral surgeon, (well the oral surgeon extracted it without putting him on a series of anti-biotics first to clear up the infection, - there was a lawsuit, and the oral surgeon LOST - ) and it had turned gangrenous (gang green) and the optic nerve was involved, and when he came out of the anesthesia, HE WAS PERMANENTLY BLIND!!!! in other words, the infection had gone into his optic nerve, he waited so long. I guess he was letting HIS TOOTH ROT in his mouth. SO PLEASE, DON'T LET A TOOTH 'ROT' IN YOUR MOUTH, JEEZE....................THIS IS 2007, NOT 200 BC Call a dentist right away.
