Its not a poison, an abscess is a bacterial infection. The cavity in the tooth fills with a white fluid called pusthat is a mixture of bacteria and white blood cells that are trying to kill the bacteria. This pus builds up pressure and can eventually pop the tooth out if left untreated.

You can also get abscesses in bone if it becomes infected.
