Abscessed tooth only happens for three reasons; when teeth are damaged such as an untreated cavity, a person brushed their teeth properly, and lastly the gum diseases. Those are the three causes to an abscessed tooth.

What causes a submandibular gland abscess besides your teeth?

Submandibular absess can be cause by Salmonella. Salmonella species represent uncommon causative agents in focal infections of the head and neck. An immunocompromised condition can be a critical predisposing factor for Salmonella submandibular abscess. They can also be caused by a deep tooth absess running down through the mandibal, earning it the name, "sub-mandibular". In either case, the infection can be quite painful, and very serious if left untreated. The absess needs to be drained and treated with antibiotics.


If there is a deep abscess in the gluteal region which areas are the infection most likely to spread to Why?

This depends on why the absess is there in the first place, is it a bed sore, caused by another disease etc..... These type of "sores" can cause the spread of infection throughout the body/organs as well as it usually spreads out from the area it is in - especially if the absess is not being cared for properly and medicated.
